Here's your shmoop du jour brought to you by supporting goals yeah

00:08

they're always there to give a pep talk to the goalie that let them in all right [Goalie having pep talk with the goal]

00:12

okay let's take a look at passage our countdown tomorrow mother commented as

00:16

00:19

All right here's a question which of the following groups

00:23

would be most likely to support the goals presented in the excerpt and here

00:28

your potential answers oh okay so of course this is heartwarming and

00:34

optimistic and all that good stuff abolishing poverty is great ending [Man discussing ending poverty]

00:38

killing and disease awesome eliminating illiteracy yeah go shmoop crippling

00:43

bigotry putting it into war and it's all brilliant stuff and then there's that

00:47

part where he's like I'm dreaming big here so how's about we all live to be [Johnson in a jar laughing]

00:51

200 sounds achievable right also I wanted to rain skittles but to know purple ones

00:57

I hate the purple one okay so maybe we read between the lines here for the

01:01

skittles thing but he seems pretty serious about living until two hundred [Man points to johnson's head in a jar]

01:05

we're hoping LBJ never died and is secretly a cyborg living on Mars yeah [Johnson cyborg walking on Mars]

01:09

that's the ticket anyway back to the question who would have supported the

01:13

goals in LBJ's speech well it wouldn't have been B because the whole speech is

01:18

about enacting change through policy and social programs where these advocates

01:22

would be more concerned with one thing money rule ah [Man relaxing in chair and coins fall]

01:25

doh so unless they found a way to mass produce and market equality well this

01:29

wouldn't fit anti-war Republicans wouldn't really go for this either while

01:33

Johnson did advocate for Less war his speech really hammered home policy and [Johnson giving speech and people celebrating]

01:37

government involvement whereas Republicans and want to limit the

01:40

governmental role in social issues they're conservatives from general

01:44

dislike of Johnson's liberal policies would have likely been shared by the

01:47

opponents of immigration at the time who were particularly mad with the ban of

01:52

ethnic origin quotas in Johnson's immigration act so C is out as well

01:55

Johnson's Great Society was brimming with liberalism and therefore was adored [Johnson speaking in a restaurant]

02:00

by those who supported big government aka answer D they loved the fact that

02:05

their government was stepping in to enact change through social programs and

02:09

policies and we love the fact that we and our right answer now if only someone

02:14

would find LBJ up there on Mars well we know he figured it out that's glide dog [Johnson on rocking chair sipping tea on Mars]

02:19

yeah he's left maybe the second cut spot in it up there what do you think
