You wrote: “Was Senator Edmund Ross of Kansas,
whom JFK and the Vice President single[d] out, one of those [courageous] men?
Definitely not. He was bribed for his not guilty vote. Ross was promised lots
of federal patronage if he voted in favor of the President.” That seems pretty
bold: Do you have good sources for that?
I thought the standard claim against Ross was
that he feared that his already-in-office patronage would be removed by the
Senate President Pro Tem should President Johnson be removed and replaced by
the SPPT (who was next in the line of succession). Andrew Johnson [if not convicted and removed] would just
leave [Ross’s] people in the federal offices they already held. That’s hardly a “promise[]
[of] lots of federal patronage.” And I am pretty confident that behavior (or,
in this case, inaction) does not amount to being “bribed.” Even that more
limited claim—that Ross voted in order to keep his people in the Executive
Branch and on the federal payroll—has (as far as I know) only threadbare
support. What is the support you have for your position? Is it just David O
Stewart’s book? What exactly was his support?
You also wrote: “These senators [who voted to
acquit Johnson] were, in fact, cowards.” I don’t see how you can say that about
W.P. Fessenden—the chair of the Joint Committee on Reconstruction. He, and the
other 6 Republicans who voted to acquit Johnson, committed political suicide
against the will of rank-and-file Republicans back in their home states.
Everyone knows that. Are you really saying that each and every of the 7
Republican senators who voted to acquit did so because they were bribed or
otherwise self-interested? That is hard to square with the fact that each
committed political suicide. Do you actually have support for that statement—in
regard to each of the 7 seven?
Again, you wrote: “The real profiles in courage
were the House impeachment managers, led by John Bingham, who fought body and
soul for the Fourteenth Amendment against President Johnson’s determined
opposition.” I think your statement is something akin to a non sequitur. The
opposition Bingham faced in regard to the 14th Amendment was in the House and
Senate—where he needed to reach 2/3—and in parts of the country which opposed
slavery, but did not support broader moves toward civil [and political] equality across racial
lines. Johnson opposed the Amendment, but his support was not necessary to it,
as the President does not have a veto power over proposed amendments. This
particular partisan fight—the fight over the 14th Amendment—was not the same as
the partisan fight over the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson. Kennedy’s
book addressed the latter partisan fight. I do not see how you can make your
point stick (about courage and cowardice) by pointing to evidence involving the
former. And I think it telling that this is the first evidence you offer in
support of your point.
Johnson did things that I think were bad: very
bad. Whether his actions warranted impeachment—is another matter. And whether
the 7 Republicans voted to acquit him had decent publicly spirited motivations
for doing as they did, or did so for self-interested or illegal reasons, or had
motivations which were more in a zone of twilight—is something we should
carefully consider. Painting one’s claims with over broad brush strokes about
groups of people—who took their decisions separately—asserting that they were
bribed or cowards...I just don’t see how that can be the right approach.
Why not put your cards on the table? What
precisely do you think Johnson did wrong that warranted his impeachment such
that the House managers acted rightly in trying him before the Senate? Was it
just his naked opposition to the 14th Amendment? That would be odd.
