this presentation focuses primarily on andrew johnson's approach to reconstruction, which was nearly opposite to what lincoln had envisioned and wanted. and ulysses s. grant's approach, which was more like lincoln's approach and produced some short-term, positive results, but the nation's focus changed during his second term. johnson barely survived impeachment, while grant's policy was ended in the bar gain of 1877, a national copout. in personality, and outlook, president andrew johnson was ill-suited for the responsibility he now shouldered following lincoln's assassination. a lonely, stubborn man, he was intolerant of criticism and unable to compromise. he lacked lincoln's political skills and keen sense of northern public opinion. though johnson had supported emancipation during the war, he held deeply racist views. a self-proclaimed spokesman for poor white farmers of the south, he condemned the old planter air stock crassy but believed african-americans had no role to play in reconstruction. thus, he provided enlightened leadership. johnson in may, 1865 outlined his plan for r
