"The world has taken note of the great vote of confidence given you by your countrymen yesterday. Your gallant men and ours are grateful for the courageous and far-sighted leadership that you are providing in the Pacific and in Asia.  

With steadfast devotion we will stand by your side as long as freedom is being challenged and peace is being threatened. We know we stand with a man of conviction, integrity and wisdom. We know we stand with a friend.

LYNDON B. JOHNSON."
