VOTE FOR THE
TEXAN WHO LEADS
THE FREE WORLD!
For the past eleven months, for the first time in our history, a native son has led
our nation and the free world. And every Texan can take pride that President Johnson
has met the awesome burdens of the office with courage, wisdom and restraint.
THE ISSUE TUESDA Y IS SIMPLE: WHO CAN BEST LEAD i
OUR NA TI0N IN A TIME OF CHALLENGE AND PERIL? '
To which man do you feel most comfortable entrusting the security and well being
of yourself and your children for the next four years—
A man who wants to turn back the clock of achievement .. a man who has worked
consistently against progressive measures in the Senate... a man virtually unlisted
In a time of crisis?
Or a man who has dedicated his entire life to public service ... who has demonstrated,
under five administrations, progressive leadership In working for a better way of life
for all Americans. A man who has proved his courage under fire ... has demonstrated
ais unwavering strength to meet any aggressor with firmness, yet restraint?
V PRESIDENT JOHNSON HAS PROVIDED RESPONSIBLE
LEADERSHIP FOR MORE THAN A QUARTER OF A CENTURY
For almost three decades, President Johnson has been a pillar of strength for Texas
and the nation. As Congressman, as Senator, as Majority Leader, as Vice President,
and now as Chief Executive, he has written a proud record of progress.
0NL Y TEXAN PRESIDENT L YND0N JOHNSON OFFERS THE
EXPERIENCE, THE PATIENCE, THE WISDOM, AND THE
STABILITY NEEDED BY THE NA TI0N AND THE FREE
WORLD IN THESE CRITICAL TIMES!
