People forget the almost euphoric wave of sympathy that followed President Kennedy's assassination. That is one reason why Johnson was able to clobber Goldwater in the 1964 election and pass the Civil Rights Bill and other major legislation. At the height of the martyrdom euphoria for Kennedy, some people started to say that he was one of the greatest presidents in US history. However, he really was unable to serve long enough to warrant such a judgement.
