walter jenkins. would you like to talk about a little bit? >> yes, i would. this is, perhaps, the best telephone conversation between the president and mrs. johnson in the recordings. walter jenkins has been arrested on homosexual accusation during the 1964 campaign. i think it is october. president johnson is concerned that if he or mrs. johnson will make a statement support of jenkins, a double dragon presidency, and that will inflate the problem even more. mrs. johnson is thinking first about the loyalty to walter jenkins and his family. reaching out to him with a statement of support. and she essentially says, is carol has indicated, i know you can't do it, lyndon, but i am going to make a statement. she just goes ahead and does it. it is a very well worded and thoughtful statement. she backed it up with years of friendship with walter jenkins. >> is a very moving story. that story alone is who was reading both of these books for. i think. this was one of the most productive presidential terms in the history of this country. it is amazing how many bills got passed under lbj. that, again, was the product of this symbiosis between the two. i ha

johnson became a big operator in the democratic party. he worked for the residents campaigns of gene mccarthy, ed muskie, george mcgovern, walter mondale. in fact, almost everybody he ever backed for the presidency ended up losing. and they didn't even come close. but that didn't matter because he was a smart fella with great contacts in washington. so johnson did the study about whether to give up the charter. and the answer came back as in no way. for the shareholders, the government backing was just too valuable. it may fannie mae could borrow money very cheaply and make huge profits, and pay huge salaries to the happy few. all the while supporting the ideal of a nice house in a white picket fence for everybody. so fannie basically made a deal with the devil. it was going to keep its privileges, and is going to do whatever it have to do to defend those privileges in congress. and as fannie became more political, who would be better at running it in jim johnson? maxwell named johnson as the new ceo and in 1991, maxwell retired. anti-tacoma retirement package that equaled more than $20 million. well, even charles schumer who was normal
