Johnson held almost every state office at one time before the Civil War. He was a US Senator from TN when the war began and was the only Senator who kept his post after his state seceded. That impressed Lincoln and when TN was recaptured by the union, he appointed Johnson to be military governor of the state. Later he chose him for running mate in 1864.
