A larger-than-life President and a transformative moment in American history. President Lyndon B. Johnson compiled a record of accomplishment on the domestic front unmatched since FDR. Fifty years later, these programs are so deeply woven into the fabric of American life that it is difficult to imagine the country without them. Melody Barnes, co-director for policy and public affairs of the Democracy Initiative at the University of Virginia and President Barack Obama's chief domestic policy advisor joins us to explore more about this ambitious series of policy initiatives, legislation and programs.
