Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"Herbert Hoover was truly a remarkable man."

"Our gratitude goes to Congressman Schmidhauser for introducing this legislation and working so tirelessly for its passage, and the entire Iowa delegation, both House and Senate."

"When he died, we felt the loss of something good and something honest and something uniquely American."

"The Congress has passed, and I shall sign today, a bill to establish the Herbert Hoover National Historic Site in West Branch, Iowa, the scene of his birth and the site of his burial."
