Republican candidate Senator Barry Goldwater was seen by many Americans as a "trigger-happy" extremist.
Barry Goldwater, the Republican candidate, lost the 1964 presidential election in a landslide to Lyndon B. Johnson, the Democratic candidate. Goldwater's conservative views, particularly on issues such as civil rights and nuclear weapons, were seen as too extreme by many voters, contributing to his overwhelming defeat.
In the election of 1932, Herbert Hoover ran against Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Roosevelt won the presidency by a landslide, because Hoover was unpopular because of his response to the Great Depression.
In geological terms, it is because the land literally slides. Usually on a hillside or mountain, unstable soil and rock will slip, and slide down the hill. When this happens, it carries away everything in it's path- trees, buildings. roads, bunny rabbits, etc. They began applying the term to an election with lopsided results- when one person has a massive majority over another, it is a figurative landslide.
L B Johnson did not stand for re election in 1968.
Lyndon Johnson did not run for a third term largely because of opposition to the Vietnam War from his own party as well as outside.
because your breathe
Yes. Because they can have a landslide and fall into a town.
gravity represents a landslide because as you know gravity pulls every thing towards it so when big rocks in big rocky mountains starts falling so gravity pulls them towards it this causes landslide
in a way because landslides are when rocks or earth or debris move down a slope. a mudslide is a fast moving landslide that flows in channels
A landslide is a physical change because it involves the movement of rock and sediment down a slope due to gravity. There is no change in the chemical composition of the materials involved in a landslide.
Andrew Johnson didn't exactly "decide" to be President. John was President Lincoln's Vice-President, and the office was thrust upon him when Lincoln was assassinated in April 1865, because the Vice-President is first in line of succession. Johnson probably liked wielding power, but had burned his bridges with both the Republican Party and his own National Union Party. Although the Southern Democrats expressed some support for him, they weren't willing to accept any of the Lincoln policies Johnson supported, so he was a dead horse candidate for reelection to the Presidency. Johnson also made an unsuccessful attempt to run for Senate in the 1868 election, and for the House of Representatives in the 1872 election. The State of Tennessee finally elected him to serve as a Senator from Tennessee in the 1874 election, but Johnson died of a stroke in July 1875, so he was only in office a few months.
President Andrew Johnson was never convicted; he was acquitted by a single vote, 35-19, following his Senate removal trial. Conviction requires a two-thirds super majority of the Senate, or 36 votes (at that time).President Andrew Johnson was impeached by the House of Representatives, meaning they brought charges against him, but the Senate failed to muster enough votes for conviction, so Johnson remained in office until the end of his Presidential term on March 4, 1869.Johnson tried to get the Democratic Party endorsement for the 1868 Presidential election, but they declined, nominating former New York Governor Horatio Seymour, instead. The Radical Republicans nominated Ulysses S. Grant, who won 214 electoral votes to Seymour's 80. Thus, Grant succeeded Johnson by election, not because of Johnson's impeachment.
