The Swearing In of Lyndon B. Johnson

History Daily

Can you imagine being sworn in as president of a country because the actual president was just shot to his death? That is exactly what is happening in this November 22, 1963 photograph. With Jackie O. on his left and his wife Lady Bird on his right, Lyndon B. Johnson took the place of her murdered husband in the confines of the Air Force One. They are all still shocked and confused over what had just happened, not knowing what the plight of America was going to be after that moment. And the worst part? Jackie O. is still wearing her husband’s splattered blood on her clothes.
