Lyndon.
Wake up, honey.
We will land in Washington.
OK.
Have you heard from Bobby?
Will wait on the runway.
There will also be journalists there.
You are expected to make a statement, something short.
Thank you. / I want to meet the leader...
... as soon as we land.
I want to talk to all of them.
Have you contacted Rose Kennedy? / Already.
Oh my God, what the woman has gone through.
Lipstick. / What ?/ Fix your lipstick.
What is the development of John Connally's operation?
Doctors are optimistic.
Thank God.
Jackie?
He doesn't want to change his clothes.
Said he wanted them to see what they had done to Jack.
Do you see how to look at me before I take the oath?
He is upset, honey. / We are all upset, Bird!
We are all upset.
Walter, the television address was addressed to the Congress Assembly...
... as soon as it seems appropriate.
Where are you now, President?
President Coincidence.
That's what brands say.
We must change the plan in November.
I keep dreaming of this.
I returned to Hill Country in ancient times,
Hiding in the warehouse underground...
... while the Comanche war ransacked the house above me,
Hunt for me.
Down there is so dark like a grave.
President of the United States!
For this bad event,
I wonder if I am dead...
... or buried alive.
Mr. President.
I urinate in my pants like a stupid child squats on the ground,
It was only a matter of time before they found the door down,
Finding me,
Take me, shout, straight to the light,
With their shiny blades.
So far,
I will be happy to stand here today.
Our current best leader has been dropped...
... in the worst way.
John F. Kennedy, said to his people...
... if our national effort will not be completed in the life of this government,
or even during our lives.
"But," he said,
"Let's start."
Today, I want to say to all Americans,
Let's continue.
We have long talked about this country about civil rights.
We have talked about this for over 100 years.
Now it's time to write the next chapter in the law book.
I urge you to set President Kennedy's civil rights bill...
... become law,
So we can get rid of from this nation...
... every trace of discrimination that is based on race or skin color.
That's right!
Do you hear what comedians say Negro, Dick Gregory, about me?
"When Lyndon Johnson finished his speech, 20 million Negro dismantled the items."
That's a good speech, Mr. President.
Honestly. But I know some people ask, "Is he serious?"
You can say to your liberal group if I will be like Lincoln.
But you have to be behind me...
... because you know Dick Russell and Dixiecrats...
... will oppose me and hold back on these civil rights issues.
Don't be too tight at the back, Manny.
And give me more space in the bag here...
... for my stuff, my key and my knife,
And give concessions in my section.
Walter!
Walter, tell me if Dick Russell comes...
... and connect me with Katharine Graham from the Post.
Time is very important, Hubert, understand?
With the election only remaining 11 months...
If Republicans are stupid enough to nominate Barry Goldwater,
You can beat him with both hands tied behind you.
Goldwater is more resilient than you think.
The main thing, I have to win Democratic nomination.
Gosh. What is this?
You tell Lady Bird about this, so she will make me a diet for months.
Senator Russell./ Right. Wait a minute.
George Wallace is not an obstacle.
Not Wallace that I think about.
You don't have to worry about Bobby.
Bobby Kennedy will immediately cut my throat while smiling at me.
You know how I really support this civil rights bill.
If there is anything I can do...
Yes, I will consider, Hubert.
Mr. President.
Senator Russell.
Uncle Dick.
Mr. President./ Lyndon, Lyndon only.
No sir. No longer. It doesn't respect.
Then if in public, but nothing has changed between us.
Now, I owe a great debt of your wisdom and generosity And don't think I'll forget it.
You forgot me a little during your speech last night.
Civil rights bill with your upcoming election?
For 100 years, the Democratic Party has control in the South.
It would be ridiculous to ignore it.
Gosh, Dick, you know I will give Humphrey...
... and other liberal groups a little red meat now and later.
Right, but... / Sir, Dr. Martin Luther King on channel three.
He can wait.
So last night only for politics election year or what?
Of course.
But I want you to hold back South for me, Uncle Dick.
Party unity will be disrupted.
We can talk more about this...
... when Lady Bird and I invited you...
... for Tuesday dinner, as usual.
That is not necessary for now.
Our Tuesday dinner is sacred.
Why don't you bring your swimsuits...
... and you can go swimming in the pool White House before dinner?
Congratulations, Mr. President. / Thank you, Senator.
What does he think?
It won't happen again, sir.
J. Edgar Hoover on channel four.
It's not that you don't respect, but drop it from there.
Edgar. / Mr. President.
The FBI is ready to help you in any way we can.
Edgar, you are not only the Bureau Chief.
You are my brother.
If the Bureau needs anything from me, tell me.
Regarding your statement last night,
I think we should talk about Dr. King.
I recently got information which will cause a big problem.
Edgar, I don't want to interrupt,
But they always follow me since Sunday.
I am interested in this, and we will immediately talk about this again, I promise.
If I can...
Does King cast his sister or something?
He is really obsessed.
OK, Manny, let's finish this.
What?
What's wrong?
Katharine Graham from Washington Post on channel two.
And Dr. King is still on channel three.
I don't need to be reminded of what I already know.
Gosh. You know, you were fired. Go, get out of here.
Walter, find me a secretary who knows what to do.
Look for people who have meat in their bones, for God's sake.
Not a Washington this annoying person.
Gosh, Manny.
Don't you have something that doesn't make me look like...
... dago funeral organizers?
I want to thank, Dr. King, for expressing your public support.
We are all very happy to hear your speech last night, Mr. President.
This won't be easy.
It's a difficult time. / That's right.
But, as you suggest,
The greatest form of respect the way we reply to the services of President Kennedy...
... is to establish a bill on the rights of the civil _, especially the right to vote.
You sound like preaching to the choir, Pastor.
The right to choose is meat from coconut fruit,
And we will pass the bill without having to argue.
But I need your help.
You know you will get it, sir.
Thank you, Martin. Thank you.
Listen, call me next you come here...
... and every suggestion you have,
Utarakan only. / Actually...
He hung up on me.
He mentioned the civil rights bill before Congress, Martin.
Kennedy also promised, Stanley.
He just can't make it happen. / He isn't George Wallace. / Are you sure?
He is behind Russell, you think he will screw it up.
He passed the Civil Rights Act '57 ./ After he dismantled it first.
The bill is like a soup made from thin chicken bones.
Martin, listen, he's a Southern politician.
He spends his life trying to become president.
And now it is realized.
For the first time, he can do whatever he wants.
That's the question, right?
What exactly is Lyndon Johnson wants?
Whatever it is, 11 months from now, he must take the re-election.
Like Kennedy, he certainly needs Negroes choose to win.
Amen.
LBJ want our support.
OK.
But this president must issue the actual civil rights bill.
And we will continue to hold his feet with fire, until he does that.
That's right. / That's right.
11 months from now, he must take the re-election.
Like Kennedy, he certainly needs Negroes choose to win.
Amen.
Stanley Levison.
Why is the person called "Pastor" Martin Luther King...
... receive advice from people who are known to be Communist instigators?
That's a good question, sir.
We see who else King met.
I want every trip to be monitored from now on.
Start. / Good, sir.
I will leave the Democratic Party before I hand it over...
... to a group of people wild Congo.
Be patient, Strom.
This bill will mess things up.
You see what King and his group are doing in Birmingham.
Bus separation is the beginning.
Now we have to shop, eat and work with them.
We have been bullied and insulted by rotten black people...
... and the negro is full of slime! / It's enough to talk about that.
That's what they want to hear,
So they can think of us as village thugs.
Thank you, Joles.
We must be very careful in handling this.
This problem is not about race.
This is a matter of the worst attack against United States Constitution,
And we have to fight to defend it.
The President is actively collecting signatures...
... cancellation of the petition to issue the RUU from my committee in the DPR.
What do you want him to do, Judge?
He must at least look fighting for civil rights.
When the time comes, he will do the right thing.
He will revoke the bill? / Yes. He knows who his friend is.
But if he issues the bill from my committee?
It still has to go through the DPR, then it's released from the committee Jim...
... before it was handed over to the Senator.
None of this will block the integrity of the party.
During this election, we can lock the Senate,
Lock the DPR, then we can choose the president of Southern Democrats.
Only a matter of time, South again join other states.
My friends, if we do our part,
Lyndon would know that he would be thank you to who on November 4th.
You don't need to worry about the president.
I know how to handle him.
The mainstream of American politics...
... has guided you and me towards the path of statism and socialism...
... and the destruction of the Constitution United States!
And I'm the only one who is outside the mainstream of American politics.
He certainly can win the hearts of the people, even in Milwaukee.
When we go to Atlantic City, I will be a Democratic candidate.
But how much damage do you make?
Strong enough for Goldwater in November.
What if Bobby smells blood...
... and decide to join the nomination at the last moment?
That little bastard doesn't have courage like his brother.
But still have his father's money.
You might win the nomination, but if the party breaks...
Come on, Dick.
Wallace just needs to beat you with this civil rights bill,
And I really don't understand why do you give him this problem.
At this point, I'm more worried about liberals...
... than I worry about Dixiecrats.
We must give them something this time, Dick.
You know that. / You look like will give them something.
I mean, don't work too hard to get this bill to the DPR.
I do what I can.
Lyndon, you can talk to Uncle Dick again later,
Zephyr has made his favorite food,
And it's getting colder. / Saved by bells.
Bird, you look pretty as usual.
And you are a liar who is bad as usual.
Curse of politicians.
So, you like being the First Lady?
Still need adjustments.
I can imagine. / But I enjoyed it.
"Everyone can knock down the barn,"
"But it takes a carpenter to build it."
Do you remember who said that?
Sam Rayburn?
Sam Rayburn, Speaker of the House of Representatives.
I want to kiss his bald head.
Thank you.
God knows I've licked it since the first time I moved to Washington,
Trying to make it pay attention to me.
You know what you want. Sam?
The biggest regret? / No, sir.
Blond haired for fishing.
I heard that, and I tried as I could become that child.
Bad behavior? Yes. Crotchety? Certain.
Lick? Certainly. I heard everything.
Fuck you!
Everyone wants power, Walter. Everything.
If they say no, they are lying. Yes, sir.
But people think it's given free like Mardi Gras beads.
Especially to them, because they will do good with it.
Nothing is free.
None.
Especially good.
Especially not good.
When a carpenter takes a saw his, if it can talk,
That will scream.
You can't get rid of rights choose from the civil rights bill!
You can't pass the Civil Rights Bill with that, not this year.
You tell Dr. King, you want this bill to be issued without any change.
You can't go sell horses by telling...
... the horse is one eye blind and sick.
They will think you dismantled the bill, sir.
Bullshit! That is still a good bill.
Public housing, access, school degregation...
Don't say it's nothing! / Liberal wing party...
... will think you betrayed them! / They are your people.
It's your job to bring them. / My job? / Of course.
You're the biggest hope of a liberal white person everywhere.
If I'm like you say,
That's because people know I hold my principle.
"Principles"? Gosh. This is not principle, it's a matter of sound!
That is the problem with you liberals.
You don't know how to fight!
Mr. President... / You said you the leader of the liberal wing...
... from the Democratic Party?
Then show me your leadership! / Watch out!
The brakes don't work! Grip! / Beware! Gosh!
Grip!
What is...
Gosh... What?
I thought I would die.
It's water resistant. / This is an amphibious car.
This is a car and also a ship. I don't see anything like this.
If I could photograph your face.
That will never happen.
Do you want to know the worst sound in the world, Hubert?
That is the sound of seconds on the clock.
All men in my family die young.
I almost died of a heart attack 10 years ago.
Bad times. / Yes.
And my time isn't much.
You and me, we have to the August convention,
While people are still grieving over the departure of Kennedy,
Until this bill is passed.
If we don't act now, chances do something about this civil rights...
... will disappear forever.
Now, are you coming or not?
Can you issue the bill DPR's Legislative Committee?
Leave Judge Smith to me. / Then the right to vote? / Next year.
No... / You hold my words.
That will be difficult to believe, Mr. President.
I know.
That's why I want you to be the direct manager of this bill.
Direct administrator?
I consider the Majority Leader Mansfield... / No! Mike, good people But I need someone who is more attractive.
And someone like you, Hubert. Even Dick Russell likes you.
That's not entirely true. / That's right. He likes you.
You know I'm under pressure for to announce my candidacy.
Now, you show me you have the courage to do this,
Then you prepare yourself to be the only candidate...
... to become the Vice President United States for me.
Another step towards the White House.
And as we have seen,
All can happen from there.
There are owls that are perched on oak trees hunting rats.
Does Hubert agree?
Yes.
Once a heart attack in life is enough, thank you very much.
Why do I have to listen to you?
Because you will get lost without me.
King won't be easy.
He doesn't believe me now, and I don't blame him.
He doesn't know you yet.
If I continue to support King, I might lose Uncle Dick.
And most likely happens.
I always think this requires the president from the South...
... which brought the South out of the past.
They don't even thank for me for that.
You promised this country the Civil Rights Bill, Mr. President.
And the complete voting rights are important.
Very important, and we will fix it.
It's just not with this bill.
Currently, we will take care of...
... separation in general accommodation first.
Let me. Let me, Manny. Thank you.
You know, every year, my cook, Zephyr Wright...
Cooking the best fried chicken steak you've ever eaten.
Every year, she and her husband drive my Packard car...
... from Washington to to the farm for me.
Zephyr can't use the toilet on the highway...
... because everything is just for white people.
He must squat in the edge of the field the way to urinate like a dog.
That's not true. And we have to fix that.
Nothing has changed in this country to Negro can choose.
The next bill will be about choosing things.
After the election of President Kennedy,
Eisenhower has stated openly...
... if the party will realize Negroes to be able to choose.
I don't want to see the Democrat party doing the same mistake.
If you think Barry Goldwater is the legitimate successor of Abraham Lincoln,
Then you have to choose him.
I'm not only interested in Civil Rights, Dr. King.
People in this country live in poor poverty.
I know. I grew up like that in Hill Country.
Setting cotton up to my hands and feet...
... used like a donkey to plow the land,
Life slumped by relying on kindness from my neighbors.
But we will change all that.
We will declare war on poverty.
War on poverty? / That's right.
I've thought about a federal program on health,
Education, eliminating illiteracy, work, you just mention it.
We will change this country from top to bottom.
That sounds really good. / That's how it is.
I strongly support legislation on these effects.
But now,
I have to be able to go back to my person and tell them...
... if this president is committed to civil rights,
And if this bill, even without the right to vote,
Will still be a strong bill without any further changes.
If I can't do that, I lose their trust.
And if they are desperate, I...
I don't know what will happen.
Is that a threat?
I don't want chaos to happen the same as you.
But, in order to avoid such situations,
I have to be able to convey meaningful updates.
OK.
This is what I need.
This bill is stuck in the Committee Judge Smith,
I need at least eight voices... Walter! To issue it.
5 Republicans and 3 Democrats.
Walter! Nice. Okay, this.
Now, you send your person...
... to each of these regions, your pastors,
Your clergy, your guilds, who you have,
To lobby the members of DPR to issue the bill.
Lobbying is the same as when seduce a woman.
I've known someone.
He is truly a female conqueror.
He gets more women much than you have ever seen.
I told him, "What is your secret?"
He says, "I go to the bar",
"And I ask every woman do they want to make out."
I said, "Gosh, you must have received slaps."
He said, "Of course."
"But I also very often hear the word Yes."
Now,
We only need eight votes...
... so that the bill is issued from Judge Smith's committee.
OK.
He said he would get it out of the committee, and hopefully he would fulfill it.
Praise God.
But we will lose the section for voting rights.
The point is, we can work with this president.
Now, he is asking for help we are lobbying members of Congress.
What should we release?
Do we also have to support candidacy?
Are you still planning to choose Republic during this election, Bob?
You know Goldwater is against this civil rights,
Pure based on constitutional basis, of course.
Personally Goldwater deplores racism.
I just thought, asked for my voice...
... while refusing to give me the right sound is nonsense.
This bill still gives us many benefits.
Unless he removes that too.
He has promised no more compromise.
Promises? Are you serious?
I do not want to support the Bill without the right to vote.
I don't ask you that. I ask you not to oppose it.
The president plans new legislation...
... which will bring a large federal intervention ...
... against poverty, hunger and work.
Think about how it will affect our people.
40 acres and a donkey.
What if he is serious?
OK.
We will not campaign against the bill,
But we also won't just sit quietly.
What does the visionary propose Bob Moses?
Freedom Summer.
We will flood the state of Mississippi with hundreds of student volunteers...
... to educate and register Negro voters. / You are crazy.
Mississippi? / Not only Negro voters. Also white students.
If one of your white skin volunteers is hurt,
You will create a very large damage .
But if one of the Negro volunteers is hurt, who cares?
They might be in trouble,
But if it requires white people who have to be beaten...
... to give a little light in the darkness that is in Mississippi,
So why not? / Because people can be killed in Mississippi!
Roy, people have suffered on Mississippi. / Really.
We don't ask... / Alright, calm down...
Nothing here will do something he cannot handle.
But we have to respond to deletion of votes,
And Freedom Summer is the right way to do that.
However, Roy, you're right too. This bill doesn't help us much.
No one in this room has a legislative experience like you.
So clearly, you and NAACP are businesses lobbying us in D.C.
Understand?
Yes, okay.
Gentlemen.
For God's sake.
Soon, Stokely and Wilkins will kill each other...
... there, right in the middle of the room.
Then, we have to sell tickets, so I can stop giving speeches.
I know it's true. / Tomorrow morning,
Call and ask our members to move this new campaign.
You need something else? / I'm fine.
Then good night.
Wait a minute.
Pastor sex enthusiast.
The hypocrisy is disgusting. He is an adulterer.
Gosh.
Southern pastor who casts members of his choir.
Who ever heard that?
Edgar, if you arrest every police officer...
... and every priest who violates the law of marriage,
Then there will be no people in politics or in the pulpit.
The feeble act is the peak of the iceberg.
The Communist Context... / Edgar,
I don't want to tell you how to do your job.
So keep an eye on him,
But the DPR will vote against my civil rights bill.
And this doesn't help.
Do you understand? / Yes, sir.
As part of Freedom Summer,
Student Coordination Committee Anti Violence, or SNCC,
Recruit and train black and white skin students from the North...
... and take them to Mississippi to register black voters.
Police dealing with activists lead clashes.
For two weeks, we have been trained...
... to join the other organizers Freedom Summer in Mississippi.
But I can confirm again about the dangers you will face.
The federal government doesn't will protect you,
And the Mississippi government will do all kinds of ways to stop you.
If you want to stop,
Please do, starting now.
Good. Let's start.
Get up. Children, children, go up...
Children, children, go up...
Children, children... Let's fight for freedom now.
Get up. Children, children, go up...
Children, children, go up...
We call the House of Representatives People to advance...
... consider the 736 DPR Bill,
Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Spokesman.... / Can you hear that?
This bill insults the Constitution _ from the federal government.
Who we are...
... to tell the cafe owner,
Who can he hire, or who can he serve?
Who we are, to tell the country...
... if they should not pass the law of segregation?
As a conservative Republican,
I believe that authority is not should just be taken away.
Very true.
But I'm also sure if the Constitution doesn't say...
... if only white people have the basis of our rights.
Don't think that happened.
McCulloch just tries criticizing someone.
What about you, Lyndon?
Is there still a lot of red meat for Humphrey and his group?
People won't support Jim Crow anymore, Uncle Dick.
I didn't say the Negro voice was included.
He is considered the most embarrassing.
But you can't insist on this. Look at the mess in Mississippi...
... with all the instigators coming down, interfere in people's affairs.
People can get hurt. / And who is it wrong?
Mr. Spokesperson,
I want to submit amendments...
... which can free local businesses in public accommodation.
For example, if you are a doctor foot expert and have an office at the hotel.
If I cut corn, I want to know...
... whose foot has been stepped on it.
Cannot be trusted.
I want to know, whether it's scented or rotten.
Foot experts, like other minorities, also have rights.
Forcing them to work...
... violates the 13th Amendment, prohibits opposing slavery...
... or forced labor!
If that is the best offered Hakim,
He should lose his position as chairman for a long time.
Lyndon./Tn. Spokesman.
I feel dissatisfied with amendments,
The sudden or outright break the purpose of this bill.
And for my dear colleague , Judge Smith,
If you want to cut corn white smelly and foul...
You also have to do the same thing with black.
That explains to him.
Gosh.
Perform voting.
Because there are no more amendments offered,
The speaker asks for a final vote _ regarding the RUU DPR 736.
Abbitt./No.
Mr. Abbitt chooses No.
Abele. / Yes.
Mr. Abele chose Yes.
Adair./Yes.
Albert.
Mr. Andrews from Alabama. / No.
Mr. Andrews chose no.
Mr. Andrews from North Dakota. / Yes.
Mr. Andrews chose Yes.
290 people choose to agree,
And 130 choose to oppose.
The bill is passed and now is handed over to the Senate.
Enough, Walter. Thank you.
General Burnside thinks he defeated Lee in Fredericksburg.
Excessive self-confidence must be paid with all of his soldiers.
Then three years later, Lee gave up on Appomattox.
No one gave up, Mr. President.
Thank you, Matthew. You're really good.
on St. Augustine, Florida,
Today's Negro Demonstrators were attacked by about 500 angry white skin...
... when they break through enter the police line.
Conflict begins when 200 Negro demonstrators,
Led by Andrew Young and other civil rights chairmen...
"Believe LBJ. He's one of us."
Is this the first time the Civil Rights Bill is passed from the DPR?
The bill is submitted to the Senate. So what?
How many Civil Rights Drills have been aborted during the past 10 years?
121.
Are your graves still there space for one more?
I was digging the hole while we were talking.
Okay then.
If he succeeds in removing it from the Committee, then what?
So we prevent taking the decision to death.
We stay together, we will be fine.
Public opinion opposes this bill, especially with the chaos that occurred.
Time siding with us.
Thank you, gentlemen.
I see no reason why we need to be silent...
... and see the bill passed to the American Senate...
... named "Civil Rights Bill", it will damage individual freedom...
... and freedom in this country.
Wallace gets 90% of white votes in East Maryland.
If he wins absolutely, the Senate will never pass the bill.
Wallace will not move without this chaos.
He is intentionally provocative. - Should I control the mass.
I bet my political career on the Negro, and is this the way to thank them?
Give more money in Maryland. / For my schedule there.
Now what are your plans to issue our bill from the Eastland committee?
Petition cancellation.
Gosh. Then you have no voice.
No, but we are getting closer.
close? "Near" is useless.
You have no voice.
Good, what is your idea?
What? I can't hear your words, Humphrey.
Come here.
I said, what is your idea?
Now is about conquering the Senate.
Dick Russell has learned them since he still suckled his mother.
Gosh, I saw him fool you liberals with strange rules...
... more than I can remember.
Wait a minute.
Gosh...
Do you know?
There are ways that we really can pass the Eastland committee...
... without petition cancellation.
With a little luck, Russell won't know this happened.
What did he do?
I think the President just passed the bill from the committee.
Good.
OK, calm Jim.
I will take care of this.
How do you think, why does it feel a little different?
That's because the temperature he cooks...
All is well, Uncle Dick? / Very good.
Do you want to add the sauce?
Lady Bird, this is very tasty, but I think it's enough.
No thanks. / What about me?
You don't offer me sauce?
Honey, I want it, but I can't.
Bird makes me diet.
Request Zephyr in the kitchen weighing my plate for each dish.
That's ridiculous.
Your wife doesn't want you too big for your pants.
That is a understandable concern.
I think I'll see how Zephyr is with the cobbler.
I just heard how you put the bill through Jim's committee...
... with false procedural commands.
A legitimate maneuver, Uncle Dick. As you teach me.
I also teach you about party loyalty.
The party can change.
This young generation will not fall with the sword of segregation.
Do you think the South people will agree with your actions?
Wallace almost won Maryland. / But it hasn't happened yet.
Other chaos, it will happen. And there will be another mess.
We will block the taking of the decision of this bill. That won't get away.
Are you sure of that? / I know what you think.
You think you will cut agreement with Senator Dirksen.
You oppose the decision, I have no choice.
A Democratic Party President ignores his own party...
... and make an agreement with Senate Minority Leaders. Embarrassing!
Don't feel tall and power with me.
You've cut the deal...
... with the conservative Republicans for a long time,
And now I can't pass the hallway? Gosh.
We don't need to fight, Dick.
Yes, we must.
I will face you, Dick.
I love you more than my own father.
But if you block my path...
I will destroy you.
I regret that the president...
... has embraced radical programs from leftist groups...
... which is mistakenly called "Civil Rights Bill."
This is the worst attack against the Constitution.
We as Senates intend to fight as best we can to the last point.
Starting today, we will block decision making.
Let this war begin.
This is not a matter of the Constitution.
It's about those who want more for depending on what they have...
... and sacrifice those who don't have anything.
And feel good with it.
The way to frame it, decorate itself with an American flag,
That's interesting.
What are you fighting for in your heart, honey?
That's what people want to hear.
Look at that. Look at the size of his ears.
Do you get that?
I want to thank you have come here...
... and share time with me.
I want to respond to Senator Russell's decision,
An unfortunate decision to oppose this bill.
This reminds me when graduated from university...
The only work that can I get...
... is teaching first grade at a simple old elementary school in Cotulla, Texas.
It's dusty, old border city in the middle of a remote place.
Filled with Mexican immigrants who don't have a container to urinate.
But I love children like my own child.
They come with starvation every morning...
... because most of them don't have breakfast.
But they are excited to learn.
That makes you feel good.
Then comes one day...
... when I see the light in the eyes they all dim.
Because they know if the world hates them...
... only because of their skin color.
Some people tell me to walk slowly.
They say political risk is too high.
And for that, I say,
If a president can't do it what he knows is right,
So why become president?
Senator Dirksen calls amendments...
... like installing a wound bandage on cancer.
I have amendments offered.
This map shows the concentration of Negro races in America today.
I suggest we put the Negro South to the whole country...
... until the proportion of race is equal to among 50 states.
I really hope New York and other cities...
... with the same conditions which will be burdened by this bill...
... to the Georgian population who don't know anything.
Is the president backing down?
I want to ask myself, but he doesn't answer my phone.
Certainly not.
My mass has been asked to make a big sacrifice,
And this bill is stuck.
Martin, I'm just as frustrated as you,
But collecting votes to stop opponents of decisions is a complicated process.
The Dirksen Amendment will damage this bill.
Dirksen must look tough for the people.
The time to take a stance is up.
It's time to act.
I bet all my credibility...
... say to our youth, if this president can be trusted,
But they want results.
They are currently heading to Mississippi...
... and put life they are in danger,
Register Negroes for sounds they haven't gotten.
I also want a good bill, Martin,
But you can't ask for proof people's loyalty every 15 minutes.
The President will take care of Everett Dirksen.
If this is what needs to be done to move the bill,
I will accelerate public death.
Gosh, Martin, that's not necessary. What other options do I have?
Please enter, Senator Dirksen.
Everett, what is this nonsense about how I manage my dog?
Sorry? / My dog, Little Beagle Johnson.
Why do you say that to journalists about me pulling his ears?
My dog likes it when her ears are pulled.
I thought you were nominating Republican Senate, not ASPCA.
Mr. President, I just joked with the media about that.
I'm much better than you with dogs.
Dogs and people.
I hope we can talk about...
About appointing William Macomber as ambassador, I know.
Right, that and also... / Let's take a photo.
That's right.
No, sit there. It's more comfortable.
That and other things...
We will talk about other questions soon.
Listen, Everett, we have to pass this Civil Rights Bill.
The longer the blocking takes decisions, makes Russell stronger,
Then the more angry the Negroes are on the streets.
How many votes will we get from your supporters?
That's what I want to talk about with you, Mr. President.
There are 40 amendments that I offer. / 40?
My constituents have some concerns.
Let's not need a lot of talk empty again, Everett.
Just go to the point, can it?
I think we also have to accompany the equalization of work.
I might be able to ask my supporters to accept public accommodation.
But let's say, a year of voluntary _ compliance before it becomes law.
No.
No?
Is it echoing here?
South Filibuster cannot be defeated without substantial changes.
But if you are willing to compromise,
I think I can give 25 votes Republicans needed...
... to close the debate and vote.
That won't happen, Everett.
Listen, whether your supporters approve this bill,
Or you choose segregrasi, then the state becomes chaotic.
We make history here, Everett.
You decide how you want history to remember you.
As a great person, people who change the flow in this country Or someone who just likes hears himself talking to himself.
Congress is not alone in contributing problems to the Presidency.
Mr. Johnson has inherited the armed clash in South Vietnam.
President Johnson must decide whether this continues,
Enlarge it, or look for settlement negotiations.
Our Communist pilot who was shot fell in Laos, is he still alive?
As far as we know.
Do everything we can to repatriate it, Robert.
We will talk about this again in Tonkin. / Good, sir.
And, Walter, whatever is needed is McNamara,
Make sure he gets it. / Good, sir.
Is Humphrey still here? / Hey, Dad.
Hey, don't go first. Give daddy a hug.
OK.
Grae./Pak President.
Gosh, look at yourself.
You're getting taller.
No, I'm wearing heels. / Really?
How is your school, Luci? / Good.
That's good.
Sir, Senator Humphrey is here. OK.
OK. See you later, Dad./ See you later.
The authorities say Bob Moses from the Freedom Summer project...
... has requested federal protection.
Things get more chaotic in Mississippi.
The federal government will not be involved in this.
You make sure if the governor is there...
... understand if we expect him to arrest his people.
Is Khrushchev still in Egypt?
Right, sir, the Soviets held their first nuclear test...
... at a new location in the Eastern Kazakh.
Good, speak, Hubert.
The good news is, we got a deal with Dirksen.
And the bad news?
We lack two sounds.
Bill!
I just thought about you. Come on, ride with me.
It's okay, children. I think I'm safe with Senator Fulbright.
I will meet you on the third floor.
Gosh. Look at you.
How are you doing? / Good.
Look, I want to talk to you about something.
A good cuff, Mr. President. Do you like this?
Do you like it? / Correct. / If so, take it.
I will do anything for you, Bill.
Do you know the person you put in a federal court?
It is very difficult to convince Humphrey's group,
But if you support Civil Rights Bill,
They will only be quiet and grinning.
President, I'm not sure my constituents will agree.
I understand. But maybe you are still less hard to fight for it.
I don't think so... / Or maybe when the vote happened,
You happen to be outside the country visits our soldiers.
I'm sure Elizabeth will like Europe.
That is for sure. My wife is too.
This, look.
This is the seal of the presidency of the United States.
There are only two cuffs like this around the world...
And you are one of the owners.
I want you to use it for health, Bill.
And think about what I said.
You look healthy, Bill. I'm sure your weight dropped a few pounds.
I need a set of new cufflinks.
What is this?
Walter. Walter!
Walter!
Gerri, where is Walter? / Here.
Why is Senator Engle suddenly not on my list?
He has paralysis because the brain tumor is malignant, sir.
Recovery phase after surgery. / Gosh.
Is he aware? / I don't know, sir.
Then find out!
If he is aware, he can choose!
I know my Bible.
And the Bible does not say if we cannot choose our own neighbors.
The Bible does not say if we cannot wake up the wall between us and the neighbor.
I need help in taking sounds in this Cloture.
No? Then I will tell you what is protecting the small state, Alan And that certainly isn't Filibuster rule.
But a strong president, who is ready to defend you.
What? Where did you get...
I won't forget this. Do you understand?
Fuck! I think I got him.
For people with name Bible (Bible),
He certainly can't handle the New Testament.
This bill is guaranteed to destroy commercial...
... white people everywhere!
Senator Cannon, listen,
Carl Hayden and I finally agreed to Central Arizona Water Project.
If Nevada wants part of this, I need your voice.
Right, I know Alan Bible's opinion about this,
But I'm talking to you now,
Between fellow war veterans.
Yes.
Right, this is a big decision,
But Democrats must stay together.
Listen... No, Howard, listen to me, can you?
Listen to me.
Now, we both face difficult election battles later.
You know I will be there for you when needed,
But can I count on you now?
Howard, you do the right thing,
And you help yourself, and you will help your country,
And you will help this country.
Are you willing to choose for Cloture?
Howard, you're a good person. Thank you. See you later.
67 votes! / Congratulations!
Should we let Senator Dirksen make a public statement?
Do you think there are other ways we can stop him?
We believe everyone has the right for the blessing of freedom.
But many of the gifts are revoked.
Not because of their own failure ,
But because of their skin color.
This cannot continue.
Our constitution prohibits it.
The principles of freedom prohibit it.
And the law that I will now sign forbids it.
Thank you, and good afternoon.
Reverend King.
We succeed.
We finish it.
Congratulations. / Thank you.
Take it, Everett. I appreciate that. / Congratulations.
Thank you, Mr. President. / Dr. King.
I want to meet Dr. King.
There you are ./ Right, Mr. President.
This is for you, sir / This is an honor, Mr. President.
Likewise me. thanks.
Sorry, Dick. / You didn't apologize.
This is not personal. This is only politics.
Eras that have passed. / That's right.
The period of ethics and politeness has passed.
The period of the principles of unity of the party has passed.
Do you know what the old soldier said during the parade?
"Hey, look, everyone runs out of steps except me."
Maybe.
I'm old, that's right, and God knows I'm tired.
But the person behind me is completely without any principle,
And you will see how you are dealing with them.
You will miss me when I leave.
I need you, Dick.
I'm still here, Mr. President.
But Dixie is left?
I hope you don't eliminate your selection opportunities.
Congratulations, Mr. President, for your greatest achievements.
The Democrats have just lost the South _ for the rest of my life,
And maybe your voice.
What makes you so happy?
4 MONTHS BEFORE ELECTION
Victory Goldwater Senator...
... has taken over the leadership of his party is far from the eastern liberal bloc...
... and replace it with conservative west for the first time since 1936.
Clausewitz said...
"Politics is war in other terms."
Bullshit.
Politics is war, point.
That simple attitude in pursues justice, without virtue.
Let me remind you again...
... if extremism is in defense freedom, it cannot be replaced.
Do you know how to win campaigns?
With no loss.
I have only lost one election all my life.
That bastard stole it from me at the last second...
... with a bunch of fake sounds,
And I will bring the taste that sick until I die.
But I tell you...
No one will see me like that again.
That will be the opposite.
NESHOBA COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI 10:30 NIGHT
Get out of the car, children.
What's the problem, Deputy Price? I think we're fine.
Get out of the car, Jewish boy.
What do you see, Negro?
We have a problem in Mississippi.
Three young men disappear.
Michael Schwerner, 25 years old,
Andrew Goodman, 21 years old, and James Chaney, 21 years old.
They all work on the project Freedom Summer in Meridian.
Chaney is a local Negro,
But Schwerner and Goodman are volunteers who are not born there,
Both are white.
The stench has begun to smell.
Connect me with the Governor of Mississippi.
They investigated the Negro church in the burned-out Neshoba County.
They have disappeared for 15 hours now.
Disappear in Mississippi?
Fucker.
Yes. Okay, connect him.
Governor, I contacted about the three children.
You mean, these three professional agitators.
Chaney, Schwerner, and Goodman.
Right, they come here create all kinds of problems.
It seems,
Deputy Prices hold them back yesterday afternoon.
Because driving 35 miles exceeds the speed limit.
Really? / Yes, sir.
So they hold them for several hours.
That's where it's confusing,
Because when their friends contact the prison there,
Deputies say he never heard them.
I don't know anything about that.
Price says he released them right at 10 o'clock that night.
And no one has heard their since.
This is clearly a publicity action.
They might hide somewhere,
Maybe they are laughing together.
Then they will reappear,
Then claim if they are harassed or others.
I don't want to have to send a group of federal officers there.
No, you don't want that.
Of course not.
You don't want publicity, and I don't want to start chaos...
... at 8 weeks before _ the Democratic Convention.
But a lot of pressure for takes action.
Now, if you want
I think I can ask some FBI agents to check it out.
FBI?
That will look better...
... compared to federal officers and US Soldiers, right?
Right, I think so.
Yes, I think you gave a good idea, Governor.
Let this be a problem Hoover, it's not our problem.
Hopefully, you're right about everything,
And these kids come back soon, then all of us can calm down.
Gosh, we have to win the election.
Hoover will definitely object.
Not if I turn on fire under her butt.
Mr. President. / Edgar,
The Governor of Mississippi wants the FBI to examine these missing children.
With pleasure, Mr. President, but there are jurisdictional issues.
I won't tell you how to take care of your shop,
But the governor specifically asked that the FBI investigate.
I tried to reject it, but...
I don't think there's anything wrong involving a third party.
I know Senator Jim Eastland wants Allen Dulles who is investigating.
CIA? No, Mr. President.
I think Dulles isn't a good idea. This is clear about the FBI business.
If you believe that.
I mean, I really don't want Dulles who went there...
... acting like he is also who leads the FBI.
Look, let's say Eastland is my business. I will deal with it.
You send your agents to Neshoba County,
And you are as fast as possible finish this, understand?
When did you talk to Eastland about Dulles who went there?
I fabricate that part.
The problem is now there are three powers involved.
There is the United States, there is the state of Mississippi,
Then then there is J. Edgar Hoover.
Car Station Wagon is found burning in the forest...
... 20 miles from Philadelphia, Mississippi,
A small town where Schwerner, Goodman, and Chaney...
... arrested for speeding at that time.
They are released at night by a Deputy Sheriff...
... and last seen riding a blue Station Wagon.
We must consider all three the young man has died.
There is no body in the car found.
Maybe they go on vacation, not so, Mr. Wilkins.
I always burn my car before going on vacation.
How many voters have you registered?
1,200, more or less.
5,000 beaten and detained, 35 churches burned,
30 Negro houses and businesses destroyed, for 1,200 votes.
It's not just a matter of sound.
For the first time, black people build new political parties.
Mississippi Freedom Democrats, I've heard. - Wait a minute.
We try to follow the general rules of the Democratic Party,
But they keep us away. No problem.
So we build the Democratic Party itself, but with a difference.
Open to everyone, white or Negro.
Don't you think that Americans should at least have...
... one political party that is not racist? / It's a waste of time.
We send our delegates to conventions where they oppose legality...
... from the segregation of the Mississippi delegation on national TV...
... and asking LBJ to not give us a seat.
Children play with dynamite.
Are you so desperate got their approval...
... until you support this mass suicide?
The young men went to Mississippi and died...
... working on tasks that the government is not willing to do for 100 years.
We must take a stand.
I grieve for the young men.
Don't use fire burning their bodies...
... to burn the remaining from the movement.
What can I do for you, Bob?
Come to Mississippi. / Don't act silly.
Show them if you support Mississippi Freedom...
You should paint the target image on his back...
... and say it's the hunting season.
Martin, you didn't come to Mississippi over a year.
He is busy.
The threat of death, imprisonment, shooting.
Don't take control of suffering. / I never said that.
Let others who take care of this, Martin.
I beg you.
Of course I will come.
The FBI follows up on information about fields in rural Mississippi,
And they found two bodies that were buried in the pond.
Gosh. Are they sure these young people?
Schwerner card in the back pocket.
Goodman's body is right below it.
It seems they were shot once in the chest.
And they are still digging for Chaney.
Bless them.
If McNamara has arrived, instruct him to enter.
Gentlemen, we continue this conversation next time. Sorry.
It is clear that Deputy Price was involved in this incident.
Maybe so is Sherif. / Oh my God.
The whole mess is my responsibility now.
If I don't give to these bastards,
Then King will speak out if I free them from murder.
But if I demand them, then the South people who shout...
... if I receive the command from the Negro,
And this is all 2 weeks before the convention starts.
Mr. President, sorry I have to tell you,
But reportedly, Governor Wallace has offered him to Goldwater...
... as a candidate for Vice President Republicans.
The cunning person will sell his mother in order to stand up.
And Strom Thurmond has been officially changed party.
Bastard basis!
Does anyone follow him?
I don't know. / Then find out! / I'll do it.
Gosh!
Do you see it on TV?
Who?
The wife of Schwerner who died.
Rita, Rita.
Wife. Widow, I mean.
Gosh. / Really bad.
Mr. President, we have received news.
No... Give it to me.
Sit there.
OK, Robert.
Captain Herrick from USS Maddox reports last night the possibility of seeing...
... two unknown enemy ships in the Gulf of Tonkin.
But some of them contradict sonar evidence...
... for actual torpedo attacks.
"Possibility of seeing"? What is the possibility of seeing?
A visual view cannot be ascertained with a mechanical meaning.
And this torpedo attack really happened?
Still waiting for confirmation.
Are there any of our ships that have been attacked?
No sir.
Is there an explosion? / No, sir.
Then how do we know that we are being attacked?
We don't know for sure.
We find conflicting readings of sonar.
Gosh, Robert.
Give me something that can be done.
Clearly, this is a very secret subject.
Humphrey may know.
President, air strike restrictions you pre-elected...
... if another attack occurs, is ready to be carried out.
Can we order them to move? / Obviously, this situation...
... about how we should be more confident, before acting.
It is impossible to have an overnight event never happen,
Don't repeat again. / What do you mean?
There has been a leak somewhere.
Who? Who leaked it? / We are tracking it.
I want the head to be in the basket!
The point is, somehow the media has got it.
Gosh.
Now there are also domestic considerations.
Yes, Goldwater.
If you don't reply, he will play every corner to fight you.
All this is nonsense about the military's insistence.
Democrats can definitely defeat Hitler and Tojo.
What else can we do?
Do you want me to give a command counter attack?
For attacks that might be or impossible?
The aircraft is ready to depart according to your order.
Mr. President, this puts you in a very bad position.
You are basically required to lie.
Do it.
Good, sir.
If the media knows, we leave it to our South Vietnamese allies.
Mr. President... / Do you think I like this?
Take the risk of being as close as _ before the election? / Sir...
Or maybe you want more Goldwater becomes president.
I see? / I never said that.
That crazy person will definitely launch an atomic bomb...
... to the Kremlin bathroom and start World War Three!
Look if you like that. / President, come on.
If Goldwater is elected, you can forget about poverty.
You can forget civil rights. What do you want?
I'm trying to change this country and prevent a big war!
Gosh, why am I considering you as my Vice President?
When the first problem comes, you want to run away.
I don't go anywhere, Mr. President.
I stand right in front of you.
You really don't give peace.
Congress will attack me back for this.
This is the election year.
I will give them some sort of resolution...
... gives me full authority there.
Then we can go back to doing which is really important.
Sir? / What?
They found Chaney's body.
Gosh.
The third body of workers Civil rights lost,
Schwerner, Chaney and Goodman,
It has been found buried in in the pond land...
... on the outskirts of Philadelphia, Mississippi.
Their bodies are wrapped in plastic bags numbered one, two and three.
Their bodies were taken to a medical center in Jackson for examination.
James Chaney gave up his life...
... so that this country fulfills forgotten promises...
... and ideals that have not been fulfilled.
We all know the pain you feel in your heart.
But we don't live in despair.
We don't give up.
We will continue to respond their violence...
... with love and forgiveness.
Like me standing here...
I don't just blame the who pulled the trigger...
... or the hole they dig with a shovel.
I blame the state of Mississippi
Until people in Washington, for what happened.
Enough, stop it! / No. No problem.
Get up here.
I'm sick and tired of coming to a black cemetery...
... who was killed by white people.
You guys? / Right!
Are you sick and tired of this is like me?
I don't feel sad tonight, Dr. King.
I don't feel forgiveness.
I hold a grudge in my heart!
And I ask you to feel anger with me.
Are you angry? / Yes!
White people who kill James Chaney won't be punished!
That's right!
The best way to remember James Chaney...
... is demanding our rights!
If you go home and receive the treatment of these white people to us...
If you accept it and not do something about it,
Then your soul is cursed!
Stand up!
We have to stand Meridian!
We have to stand in Jackson! / Stand up!
Then when we go to Atlantic City,
What should we do? / Stand up!
One person, one voice!
You must meet MFDP.
Martin, this is not that simple. / This is simple.
You don't understand what my people feel.
This murder, they advance the movement.
If the government doesn't do the right thing right now,
Anti violence is no longer a choice.
You can see most of the Negro delegates...
... from the southern states have been seen here,
Claim to be an alternative delegate.
This is something I never thought was happening in the Democratic Convention... ... maybe since the time of Reconstruction.
And based on the representative of the Democratic Freedom,
Dr. Henry, who is their chairman,
Dr. Martin Luther King, they don't accept any compromise...
... except to get votes in this convention.
I'm sure it's under consideration, John.
John Connally, governor of my own state,
Tell me, "You give the chair to the black person,"
"Not only is Texas coming out, but the entire South will walk out."
We might as well say goodbye to the election.
What do you want?
Ballots in Alabama, sir,
It seems that Governor Wallace erased your name from there.
Fuck!
He can do that? / Of course he can.
Goldwater must be medium laugh now.
And now they threaten leave from the convention!
Basic fucker!
Lyndon, why don't you take a break?
I'm okay, Bird.
You don't sound fine.
When was the last time you ate something? - Go, Bird.
You make me headache. / Honey, I'm just worried.
Can you leave me?
Go, get out of here! Go!
Thank you.
I feel sorry for him. / I know
Thank God he has you, Walter.
And you.
Do you think he's hard on me?
He is hard on everyone, especially himself.
People don't see that. But I see it.
I see everything.
His girlfriends.
But I'm the only one he chooses.
Until finally...
He will go home to me.
The first campaign was paid for with my money, you know that?
I have to look down embarrassed asking inheritance to my father for that.
For God's sake, that's the best investment I ever made.
My lipstick is good?
You look charming.
That's not true.
But you have to do what you have to do.
And whatever happens, you don't stop.
CBS News Correspondent Mike Wallace is here...
... in Conventional space where credential committee...
... from the Democratic National Party start the trial.
And now we listen to from the Democratic Freedom Party...
... representatives from Mississippi.
Simply tell the credentials committee what happened in Mississippi, Ms. Hamer.
January 9, 1963, I went to a meeting...
... to learn how to register Negro voters in Mississippi.
When traveling back,
I was detained by the Winona Police Chief and was put in a regional prison.
After I put in the cell,
Highway patrollers...
... tell me to lie down face down on the bed, say,
"You will hope you are dead."
Who is this person?
Fannie Lou Hamer, daughter of a land cultivator.
Being one of the leaders of MFDP.
For God's sake.
Then he ordered...
... two Negro male prisoners for beat me with clubs.
The first prisoner hit me until he was exhausted.
Then the patrol officer ordered _ The second Negro to beat me.
This is very bad. / Really.
He can urge liberals to support MFDP,
Then South flock will leave the convention.
Walter!
Walter, you tell the reporter...
... we have a big announcement in Rose Garden.
What announcement? / I don't know!
Anything to close the broadcast in Atlantic City.
I start shouting.
Then one white man hit my head and asked me to shut up.
My dress is revealed high, so I tidy it up.
But other white people come and pull it up again.
All this happens just because we want to register to vote.
And if the Democratic Freedom Party does not enter this convention,
I question America.
What is America?
Free land and brave homes...
... while our lives are threatened every day...
... because we want to live like a human being.
We only ask fair representatives from...
The president wants to deliver an announcement...
... at the White House, a few more moments.
Please prepare for President of the United States.
Hello.
First, I want to thank you... / I don't understand.
What happened? / It seems, Miss Hamer,
We have been interrupted by the President.
I know most people... / Come on.
... still curious about the candidate my Vice President.
And we will as soon as possible give that decision, I promise.
I think I will now open, if you want to ask questions.
I want to know everything King, Fannie Lou and Bob Moses...
... as well as everything discussed people at MFDP.
I want them to always be under supervision, everything.
President, we don't have an warrant.
That never stopped you before, right?
I don't care what you do or how you do that.
In fact, I'd better not know.
But everything you get, immediately send it to Walter.
Understand? / Good.
Uncle Dick. / This is really late, Mr. President.
You can have a heart attack again.
If that happens,
Then it's between Dixiecrats or Martin Luther King who buries me.
Have you heard a public telegraph demanding that I give the MFDP seat?
The whole country will think...
... if the Negro has more power in the Democratic Party...
... more than what the President has, then the whole South will be chaotic.
I've warned you.
Do you know what I'm thinking?
I think this is a King plan together Bobby Kennedy for my shame.
Look, Kennedy will stab me from behind...
... then steal this nomination at the last moment.
President, Robert Kennedy has no interest whatsoever...
... to hurt you or help Barry Goldwater.
Then fuck with all of them.
I will return to my garden and the people who love me.
I never want to be the president at first.
Mr. President, forgive my honesty, but you talk like a spoiled child.
We both know you're not serious.
Now take medicine sedative, sleep.
Thank you.
I walk into the lion's nest, I argue loudly,
I use all the deepest feelings I have.
But there is still no development. / Gosh.
At least MFDP may be willing to accept...
... some real voices at the convention, some voices.
What does King say?
He is very supportive of their leaders for this.
After everything I did for him, he must defend me!
Why doesn't anyone stand up against me?
I stand up to defend you, Mr. President.
Someone who is important.
If you think my loyalty is not important...
Gosh, you're really sensitive.
Gosh.
I depend on you, Hubert, you know that.
Gosh. There must be a solution.
Maybe we can ask...
... one or two Mississippi supporters to agree to step aside.
Say if they are sick or something else.
Good.
Tell them if they can send two delegate voices.
We will call them "thorough delegates."
But one of them must be their white priest.
Reverend Edwin King./ That's him...
That way, one white and one black.
We will integrate their delegation .
Who can argue with that?
I will see what I can do.
Don't "see" what you can do!
But do what I command.
Mr. President.
What do you think about Hubert?
I think he works hard as he can.
Yes.
He is good.
Good is a term for women who don't have breasts, buttocks and personality.
It is good when kissing a baby.
There is no good word in knife fight.
Connect me with Walter Reuther.
Mr. President, really a surprise.
Reuther, I know how is important...
... your golden child is Humphrey for you...
... and other organized labor.
But if this big war delegation happens...
... and the South leaves the Convention,
He won't have a future in the Democratic Party, you hear?
Right, sir, but I really have to...
You have to tighten your bridle...
... then enter King and MFDP to the line, bro...
Hubert Humphrey will never be My vice president or anything else!
Sir, I... / He can't be chosen to be a dog catcher,
And you don't have anyone in the Senate to bring you water.
Now you go to Atlantic City and fix this mess, right now!
Are you okay, sir?
There is nothing I hide.
You know me, Walter.
I have a sincere desire to unite people,
but my people in the South precisely oppose me,
Then North against me, and Negro also oppose me,
And the media certainly does not have mercy on me.
This isn't fair, sir. Not after all you have done.
If I die tomorrow,
There are no 10 people who will shed tears.
No sir. That is not true.
Of course that's not true.
People are so fast turn away from you.
When my father lost everything,
People who always help, treat it like dog dung.
They embarrass him directly,
In public.
And my mother...
The way to ignore my father...
That's what killed him.
Do you know what I'm thinking?
People think I want great power,
But what I want is great entertainment.
A little love.
That's all I want.
You get that from us, sir.
From me.
Poor Marjorie must always ask where you are.
He understands.
How many are your children? Five?
Six.
Two daughters and four sons.
True, Catholic.
I always want a son.
Don't get me wrong, I love Luci and Lynda, but...
... a man wants a boy.
I consider you already like my own child.
Walter, will you be outside?
Right, sir.
Martin.
Mr. Reuther. I don't think will meet you here.
Likewise me.
I got a call from the President for great help for the turning point of Texas.
You have to make MFDP can compromise.
What the president offers is an insult.
They have shed their blood...
Martin, your funding is at stake.
You have to make MFDP agree,
Or there is no more funding for movement,
Not one cent.
You will sabotage the whole civil rights movement because of this?
Not me, but you.
Number of delegates at the convention, who cares?
That's not true. / Listen, it is the last offer.
You ask your mass for to accept that,
Or you can cup cans and your principles...
... go back down the street and see how far it takes you.
LBJ! LBJ! LBJ!
Delegates are welcome to sit...
What do we want? / Freedom!
When do we want that? / Now!
What do we want? / Freedom!
When do we want that? / Now!
Which side are you on? All...
Which side are you on, God?
Which side are you on? All... / Which side are you on?
Martin. Come here...
I want everyone to hear this.
I'm happy to say if we have produced the best compromise.
MFDP will get two voice delegates, Aaron Henry and Edwin King.
And the Democratic Party will adopt formal rule changes...
... to ban every segregation of the future delegation.
This is a big victory.
Senator Humphrey, God doesn't send us to Atlantic City...
... only for two seats. / That's right. / While we were all tired.
It's like a plantation boss white skin...
... who make decisions for black farmer farmers.
Wait a minute, Bob.
You have won your case in a court of public opinion.
Now you have got your proof of representation.
"Evidence"? / Don't turn it around my words, Aaron.
What I'm saying is, there are many _ at stake here,
And this is a political compromise needed.
We are not here to bring politics as our morality.
We are here to bring our morality into politics.
Dr. King, what do you think we should do?
If I'm a Mississippi Negro, feel what you're going through,
I will vote against it. / Right.
But serious commitment...
... to end discrimination conventions in the future...
... maybe a big possibility... / That's true.
That way MFDP can feel real pride.
And as the leader of Negro, I ask...
I want you to accept this.
Good work, Dr. King.
Sulaiman himself cannot cut his child to half with certainty.
I might lose fighting, Bob,
Personally I might not be safe, but I will win this war.
Along with LBJ.
LBJ is not the second arrival.
He is like other politicians.
He will do whatever can be selected.
But in my opinion he really wants civil rights.
Now we get that opportunity, Bob.
Real opportunity.
The best chance in 100 years, and I don't want to waste it.
Can delegates sit down?
Compromise has been working on regarding overall delegation...
... from Mississippi has reached agreement.
OK, that's enough. Let us go. Come on.
Jim, what happened?
LBJ is playing with us.
He gives the Negro seats.
You wait here. I will find out.
The credentials committee sets a compromise...
... for two delegations votes from MFDP,
But Mississippi and Alabama reject agreements and walk out.
If Georgia also comes out next,
Then another South will follow. President?
Governor Sanders from Georgia calls.
Georgia?
What does Carl want?
Alabama and Mississippi walk out, and Sanders says he might come out.
Gosh!
Carl, what's wrong?
Mr. President, you can't give these people two chairs.
This will look like the Negro takes over the entire convention.
Gosh, it's one Negro and one white priest.
This is a matter of principle.
I and my delegate already prepared to leave.
In fact, the whole South will come out.
Well, let's try to understand something.
They are Democrats the same as like you and me,
But old people from Mississippi, they hold them back.
Now they are out, because they are not registered to vote.
Because they don't allow they register!
They beat him, shot him, and hung them.
Now you lose a lot of people, Mr. President.
No, Carl, you and I won't be able to survive the modern political life...
... as long as these people keep doing these in old ways...
... and eat the Negroes for their breakfast.
They must stop that!
Mr. President, you have to revoke the name "whole delegation."
No, you listen to me!
You have to round your pikikran for now and so on...
... what kind of Christian you are.
Are you only a one-week adherent, or are you holding the world with your heart?
And what kind of politician are you?
You just want to defend yourself,
Or do you want to create a life good for the entire population of Georgia?
Of course I'm... / And what kind of person are you?
Do you have the courage to do what you think is right? Or are you just going to turn away?
But don't try to threaten me!
So if you want to leave the convention, then do it now!
But if not,
So I hope to see that your bright and sparkling face...
... wear a hat "Together with LBJ" tonight...
... when I take over the stage!
Bird, go and leave me.
I can't do that, Lyndon. I do not want.
You're the same as the others.
You all oppose me.
That's really not true.
Really? / Look at me.
See me, Lyndon.
You're as brave as FDR, Truman and Lincoln.
And many people who are are at the convention...
... and parties...
... and the people of this nation who love you.
And they rely on you. / I will resign.
Let someone else take care of this. / You will not resign.
I will resign! / That's not true!
When your great-grandfather is hiding under the floor of the board...
... while Comanches attacks his home, is he shocked?
Back when the choice is wrong for your country.
Your friends will freeze with shame,
Then your enemies will laugh at you.
The bastards must like see me fall.
And you will give them that satisfaction?
I don't think so.
That is not the man I married.
Sir, Governor Sanders has just appeared on TV,
And the Georgian delegation won't come out after all.
Sanders don't back down? / Yes, sir, that's right.
So the South stays on? / Right, sir.
Dear Lyndon B. Johnson...
... nominated with absolute voice...
... as nominating candidates President of the United States,
And Hubert Horatio Humphrey is our prospective Vice President!
Chaos has subsided in Atlantic City,
And President Johnson from the Party Democrats are really happy.
Hello everyone!
Hubert./Pak President.
You look a bit depressed as the next prospective Vice President.
This feels different from what I imagine.
That. OK...
You will soon forget it.
American people don't have friends and supporters who are bigger...
... other than Democrats...
... who is proud to declare him as our chairman.
We welcome the person concerned, Lyndon Baines Johnson!
We lose five points in Georgia, six pounds in South Carolina,
Eight points in Louisiana.
Even Goldwater beat I was 60% in Mississippi!
Now he is at the top!
That bastard turns things around!
Where are your ideas? Which is your solution?
Walter, I want you to change my visit schedule.
Give more time in the South, especially Louisiana.
Then give TV more money our campaign is there. / Good, sir.
And you guys are left, why are you still standing here?
Get out and do something!
Come on!
Not you, Humphrey. Stay here.
Already read nonsense Wall Street Journal...
... which exposes my corruption?
It is definitely designed by Goldwater.
That's right.
Look at this.
That's disgusting.
Goldwater wants me to fall into the mud, For God's sake, I will do it.
Look, I want you to form a special group regardless of the campaign...
... then attack him back with everything we have!
Mr. President, I think trying replying to them is not...
For God's sake, just do it!
Mr. President, you are leading a vote vote in most regions.
Yes, so did Nixon in the 1960s.
And some people think he can beat Jack...
... it's just that a group of dead people can choose in Chicago at the last moment.
It's not over yet, until this ends.
Eight, nine...
Nine... / Eight, seven,
Six, five, four, three,
Two, one, zero.
This is a bet...
... to make the world so that can be occupied by God's children...
... or heading to darkness.
We must love one another,
Or we should die.
Choose President Johnson on November 3.
Betting is too high if you just stay home.
I want you to publish this soon.
This will be controversy. You will get a lot of criticism.
Then, we only need show one time...
... then let the media do their work for us.
I want to see it again.
Now, Barry Goldwater says he is not a racist.
But the government can't confirm what people feel in their hearts.
And he's right.
Law can't make white people love you.
But the law can prevent them from hanging you up.
Law can prevent them from rejecting your duties...
... and your children's education.
And the law can be sure if you have the right to vote.
I didn't come here to tell you who should be chosen.
But during election day,
Be sure to send the best senators from Arizona...
... and her tender heart to where she should be!
Walter arrested?
In the YMCA toilet beside D.C. Vice squad.
Other people detained are Army Sergeants.
No...
This must be a mistake. No, sir.
Apparently, Walter was detained with the same problem 5 years ago.
Why don't I know that?
None of us know.
This is definitely what Goldwater did.
Goldwater will use this.
Gosh. This is near the election, this will really confuse everything!
There is no threat security at all.
It's better not to.
You said they already checked it.
I have a written contract with your signature.
Some situations are unpredictable. / That's your job, Edgar!
I will take care of this, Mr. President.
Then why isn't that making me feel better?
You have Walter's Air Force Reserve record.
Goldwater is the commander.
There is a possibility that he has an sign handle his fitness evaluation.
We must hold it, so Goldwater can't say anything!
Walter will resign as soon as possible.
You try if the doctor who issued the statement...
If he works too hard and gets out of control.
I've worked with for 25 years...
... and don't know anything.
How do you know when...
... someone...
There are certain signs, temperament.
The way someone dressed or comb his hair.
A strange way of walking.
That's new to me.
I don't doubt you.
I'm sure you know.
In your field of work, I mean.
Marjorie alienates herself.
Don't believe this is real.
I can't believe this is true.
I will make a statement public support.
Certainly not.
First Lady should not be involved in this matter.
None of us may be involved.
He is confused, Lyndon. He can hurt himself.
That's not my problem. / What...
He is our friend.
He was our friend, then he stabbed me from behind.
Will we never meet him again?
Do you think I like this?
Now Goldwater defeats my in voting.
I love Walter like...
I tried to maintain this campaign with iron wire and saliva.
And if you are not with me, then you oppose me.
I know why you think must do this, honey.
But you're wrong. Do what you think should be done.
But I won't ignore our friends.
Now, I'm sorry. I have to deliver a speech.
Gosh.
Although this is believed to be a very controversial decision,
This year's Nobel Prize winner is for Peace...
... is Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
I was very touched and flattered by the decision of the Nobel Committee...
... who are very loyal to want to pursue anti-violence...
... for the rights that every man and woman...
How do you want to be recognized by Dr. King?
I don't want to.
King knows where I stand.
I don't need to climb up the stage and shout it.
Movement of most people...
... who are loyal to the anti- purpose of violence from these rights...
I have to have the ability of paranormal ...
... in order to protect the president from deviant people like Jenkins,
But when dealing with King, seems to have no strong warning.
Give me a sex tape from King with the woman.
And mesik tick.
"King, you really a cheater..."
"... and is very responsible _ to us Negroes."
Sir, are you sure the president doesn't want to object to this?
No problem.
"King, you don't believe with God."
"It's clear you don't believe with every moral principle."
"You can be our biggest leader,"
"But you turned out to be no more than an immoral person,"
"A moron who is moral is not normal."
"You are a big cheater, and evil and inhumane..."
"... and you should kill yourself, before the dirty soul and your deceit..."
"... known to all nations."
Goldwater! Goldwater!
What's wrong with these people?
This is a Democratic Party event!
Where is the governor? / Go an hour ago.
Suddenly you have to get out of town. / Basic cowards!
I've had enough of this nonsense.
Let's do it. Fast!
Now, let's welcome a warm and lively New Orleans...
... to the President of the United States!
OK. OK!
You have said your opinion, now I want to say my opinion.
My southern colleagues, please.
I once knew an old senator from the South...
... who complained to me about the condition of our beloved region.
The old senator talks about how troops from outside...
... scatter and conquer Southern population...
... by attracting their racial hatred.
I accept this award for the name of civil rights movements...
... which is still being cultivated...
... free government and are regulated fairly.
Just yesterday in Alabama,
Our children, cry for brotherhood,
When meeting a water hose, dogs, or even death.
The old senator explained...
... what is the future of the South...
... if we all can work together!
Just yesterday in Mississippi,
Young people who are looking for the right to vote...
... was beaten and killed.
Then the old senators talk about longingly...
... about returning home once again...
... and tell the real person.
He said his country was poor...
... haven't heard the actual for 30 years!
We always hear during the election...
... is, "Negro! Negro! Negro!"
I won't let them build hatred.
I won't let them fool by drawing their prejudices!
I believe wherever you are...
... can have dignity, equality and freedom.
We have laws new country.
Civil rights law.
And I will enforce it...
... because that's the right thing to do!
ABC News continues '64 election news.
Although President Johnson has done his job well...
... in calming and leading America,
Still not reaching the position which voting should be.
The number of votes just entered.
Georgia, which is always fulfilled Democratic Party,
Has chosen Senator Goldwater.
Senator Goldwater has so far been superior to the absolute in the South,
So we need to wait for to assess the basic strategy.
Current voting has been closed in New York.
New York Herald Tribune installs the title,
"Johnson Lengser."
... profile analysis of CBS voting.
Lyndon Baines Johnson was elected as President of the United States.
What about that?
Isn't that amazing? / God!
Where is Lady Bird? / Right behind you, as usual.
60 million votes.
You are no coincidence, Mr. President.
President, there is a telephone call from Senator Russell.
Alright!
Continue... Have fun!
I will see you soon.
Uncle Dick./ Congratulations, Mr. President.
I just did what my teacher taught me.
You know this won't happen if it's not because of you, Uncle Dick, everyone.
Thank you, sir. Thank you.
I'm sorry for Georgia.
That's disappointing, huh.
Georgia has never chosen Republicans before, not once.
Not even during Reconstruction.
But they will return.
I wish you were here.
Listen, Uncle Dick,
You know there are many jobs in front of us.
I now rely on you.
I will try my best, sir.
I know that.
Congratulations on enjoying your party, Mr. President.
See you in Washington.
Congratulations Mr. President.
Yes.
I'm sorry.
From our ambassador in Saigon.
Green light for Mr. Johnson, red light for Senator Goldwater,
And maybe for the right wing conservative control of the Republican Party.
Here are the numbers.
In the election assessment, this...
96% Negro chose Johnson.
They owe us a lot , Martin.
Now they must give us the Election Rights Bill.
LBJ won't give us anything. We have to take it.
And we must immediately start a new campaign in Alabama.
I'm glad it's finally over.
"Ends"?
This will only begin.
What are you doing here alone?
Everyone is waiting for you. Join the party.
Your party.
Soon.
That's right, this is my party,
I have to drag it to light,
Kicking and shouting every inch of the trip.
Because this way new things will be born.
Bird and I lost three children before we got Lynda,
And I remember when they finally allowed me to enter the room...
... to see my first child, who is still alive.
Then on that floor...
... you can still see the footprints of the doctor in my wife's blood pool.
And I think, "Yes, this is no stranger."
"I know this."
But now, we will party as if there is no tomorrow...
... because there is no feeling in the world the same as victory.
But at sunrise,
And the knives will look,
Then all these smiling faces will watch over me,
Waiting for a moment will be a weakness.
Then they will clean up my stomach like a deer.
Are you okay, honey?
I'm fine, Bird.
I feel amazing.
I'm president.
The following year, President Johnson with Dr. King...
... working on the civil rights movement _ to pass the Right to Choose 1965,
LBJ also asked Congress to enact the "Great Society" law,
Making Medicare, Medicaid, Head Start, and improving education,
Work, immigration, environment and art.
In the fall of 1968, nearly 25,000 soldiers were killed in Vietnam.
Support for war starts eroded and protests occurred.
Facing the division of selection and deteriorating health.
LBJ announced in March 1968 that he would not take part in the re-election.
Martin Luther King killed April 1968.
Lyndon Johnson died of an heart attack on his 1973 plantation,
At the age of 64 years.
