Description
Lyndon Baines Johnson (August 27, 1908-January 22, 1973), often referred to as LBJ, was the 36th president of the United States (1963-1969), a position he assumed after his service as the 37th vice president (1961-1963). Johnson, a Democrat from Texas, served as a United States representative from 1937 to 1949 and as a United States senator from 1949 to 1961, including six years as Senate majority leader, two as Senate minority leader, and two as Senate majority whip. He campaigned unsuccessfully for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1960 but ran for vice president with John F. Kennedy, heading the ticket for the 1960 presidential election.
After their election, Johnson succeeded Kennedy following his assassination on November 22, 1963; he completed Kennedy's term and was elected president in his own right in the 1964 election, winning by a large margin over Barry Goldwater. Johnson ended his reelection campaign shorty after doing poorly in the 1968 New Hampshire primary. He is one of four people who served in both offices of the executive branch as well as both houses of Congress.
