No. Andrew Johnson was a Democrat who had run for election as President Lincoln's Vice-President on the National Union ticket. The Radical Republicans wanted drastic changes in the South during Reconstruction; Johnson was more sympathetic to the South, and wanted to reunite them with the Union immediately and unconditionally.
