Presidential Power - LBJ

Inspired by a recent watch of the Netflix hit "House of Cards" - a tale of dastardly political in-fighting in Congress (which was based on a BBC mini-series of the same name), here are a selection of pictures which highlight President Johnson's negotiating tactic with opponents (known as "The Treatment"):

All of which might be a good example to use when discussing Presidential Power which, like Prime Ministerial power, is concerned with the structures of power, as well as the individual circumstances and the personal characters too.
