#美國總統# 第三十六任總統林登·詹森(1963-1969)
1963年11月22日,在甘迺迪總統遇刺之後,林登·詹森宣誓就任美國第36任總統。
詹森總統的願景是為美國人民以及其他地方的同胞們建立「一個偉大的社會」。基於此,美國《社會保障法》的1965年聯邦醫療保險(Medicare)修正案幫助數百萬年邁的美國人獲得幫助和支持。
詹森總統還是美國歷史上以最大優勢贏得普選票的當選總統——1964年,他以超過1500萬張選票的優勢當選總統。
明天,我們將分享下一任總統理察·尼克森的故事。

#U.S. Presidents# (#36) Lyndon B. Johnson (1963-1969)
On November 22, 1963, when President Kennedy was assassinated, Lyndon B. Johnson was sworn in as the 36th United States President.
「A Great Society」 for the American people and their fellow men elsewhere was the vision of President Johnson. As a result, millions of elderly people found succor through the 1965 Medicare amendment to the Social Security Act.
Johnson was also the President-elect by the widest popular margin in American history–in 1964, he won the Presidency by more than 15,000,000 votes.
Tomorrow, we will share about the next President - Richard Nixon. #Presidents of the U.S.#
