Lyndon Johnson: “You and Mary have been a source of great strength to Lady Bird and me.”

In that pursuit, Mr. President, United States support will be gladly given.

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

We are grateful for the impressive gesture of good will and partnership that you have extended to us.

Sometimes it is your job to go out and scout the road, to encounter and overcome the difficulties that always accompany such a vast new venture as this.
