The correct answer is "Elected leaders were capable of abusing their power."
For Lyndon B. Johnson, he abused the powers given to him in the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution passed by the United States Congress. His massive escalation in Vietnam despite the lack of US success shows how he abused his executive power.
For Richard Nixon, he tried to cover up a huge break in to the Democratic National Convention headquarters at the Watergate complex. He tried to use the excuse of "executive privilege" as a means to keep his recorded conversations from the American public.
The correct answer is "pressure from anti-communist republicans."
After World War II, the US and Soviet Union emerged as global superpowers. Their difference in political ideology lead to a battle for global power and influence. This battle caused for the US to get rid of any possible communist influences or Soviet spies within the federal government. This pressure, put on by Republicans who felt that Democrats were "soft" about getting rid of communism, lead Harry Truman to put into place the loyalty program (also known as Executive Order 9835).
