Lyndon Johnson: “As your President, I struggle with these problems every waking moment of every day.”

I believe deeply in your cause and I believe in you.

Your country thanks you.

In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this twentieth day of January in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-nine and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

America's aims are simple and straightforward.
