Additional Information

Claudia Alta "Lady Bird" Johnson was the 36th First Lady of the United States, married to Democratic president Lyndon B. Johnson. This button was most likely created during the 1968 presidential election by a supporter of the Republican challenger, Richard Nixon. The implication of the button is that Nixon—the eventual winner—would capture the election, forcing the Johnson's to move out.
