Which evidence from “The American Promise” is sufficient to prove Lyndon B. Johnson’s argument that we must fight to ensure that all Americans have the right to vote? Question 4 options:

A)

"For with a country as with a person, 'What is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?'"

B)

"The Constitution says that no person shall be kept from voting because of his race or his color…We must now act in obedience to that oath."

C)

"Somehow you never forget what poverty and hatred can do when you see its scars on the hopeful face of a young child."

B)  "The Constitution says that no person shall be kept from voting because of his race or his color…We must now act in obedience to that oath."

Explanation:

In his "Special Message to the Congress: The American Promise" delivered on March 15, 1965, President Lyndon Baines Johnson declared that "the Constitution" guarantees the right to vote to any person regardless of his race or color. This speech was given to explain why the voting rights bill that he proposed need to be passed by Congress.

In the speech, he delves into why Congress, has promised to uphold the Constitution, has the right to allow the right to vote for everyone irrespective of race and skin color. His statement "the Constitution says that no person shall be kept from voting because of his race or his color…We must now act in obedience to that oath" proved his argument to get all Americans the right to vote.
