From the Paper
"It was also the era in which American understanding of the law changed, and that change was responsible, along with the actions of President Andrew Johnson, for helping the Union remain intact when continued strong forces for a separate North and South still held sway.
Spaulding makes an essential point for understanding Reconstruction, and one that is particularly apt concerning the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. Spaulding notes that "Although the modern legal profession has its roots in the same time period (legal formalism, education in law schools rather than apprenticeships, Socratic instruction, bar associations, large firm practice, and a distinct brand of constitutional conservatism all emerge in the 1870s), historians of the legal profession have largely ignored the relationship between professional organization and lawyers' experience of the Civil War and Reconstruction" (2005, p. 2001+)."

"THE MOST MISUNDERSTOOD AMERICAN PRESIDENT: ANDREW JOHNSON
Most people, if they know anything at all about Andrew Johnson, know he was the first American President ever to be impeached, and that he missed it by only a single vote. In fact, the two books used for reference here, picture Johnson similarly, in lots of ways. First of all, it would have been nearly impossible for anyone to successfully follow the appeal of the martyred Lincoln. Yet, he was not at all like Lincoln- not in personality, in attitude, nor in his devotion to a strict interpretation of the Constitution. In fact, he seemed to be not so much for the slaves as he was against their masters. "He had become an advocate of the small farmers against the privileges of the large planters. He also shared the racial attitudes of most white yeomen. 'Damn the Negroes,' he exclaimed to a friend ..."

"THE IMPEACHMENT OF ANDREW JOHNSON
The recent attempts to impeach President Clinton re-focused historians and politicians on the first impeachment trial of a U.S. President, Andrew Johnson, in 1868.
The widely held view that the impeachment was a political abuse of constitutional power and an attempt to make the president subservient to Congress is greatly exaggerated. It was reluctantly undertaken by representatives who felt compelled to defend their institution against presidential aggression (Stathis, 29).
The key is "accountability". "Among American presidents, Andrew Johnson experienced one of the major tests of accountability. His political future as well as the fate of several members ..."

Abstract
Examines the role of this President (1865-1868) in Reconstruction, his struggle with Congress over federal-state and North-South relations, enfranchisement of ex-slaves and causes for his impeachment.
From the Paper
"JOHNSON, RECONSTRUCTION POLICY AND IMPEACHMENT
This research paper explores the degree to which President Andrew Johnson's conduct shaped Congressional reconstruction policy toward the defeated Southern states and whether that conduct made him deserving of impeachment. Both by his substantive approach to reconstruction and the defiant manner in which he challenged the prerogatives of Congress, Johnson frustrated and impeded the will of the majority in Congress and embittered a hard core of Radical Republicans. The impeachment of Johnson reflected not only a partisan political clash, but also fundamentally different approaches by Johnson and his Congressional opponents to federal-state relations in the North-South context and to the enfranchisement of newly freed slaves. Johnson's conviction in the Senate was defeated by one vote which ..."

Abstract
This paper presents a review of the life and career of American President Andrew Johnson. As little is known about this man, the writer provides a background and history of his life and a review of the highlights of his presidency. The writer points out that Johnson was the first president to ever be impeached. The paper compares his presidency to other, possibly more well known presidents, such as Abraham Lincoln. The paper includes a review of the major issues which were present at the time of Johnson's reign, including slavery and the reconstruction of the country after the civil war.
From the Paper
"As a matter of fact, neither author really tells us much about Johnson, or even how he was nominated as Lincoln?s vice-president. In 1864, as the Republicans re-nominated Lincoln, they nominated Johnson, who was perhaps the most militant Unionist serving in the South, as vice president. It was, in a way, a reward for helping to pass a law in Tennessee which abolished slavery in perpetuity. Thus, a Jacksonian Democrat became the running mate for the Republican President, Lincoln."

Abstract
This paper takes a close look at the tragic and confusing period which occurred directly following the United States Civil War. First, the actual plan for Reconstructing the South, as it was implemented starting in 1867, is defined and discussed. Then, Andrew Johnson's plan is discusses. Finally, the argument is made that the actual Reconstruction, though a failure, was more successful than Johnson's would have been.
From the Paper
"At the end of the Civil War, the United States was a nation set for great change. Its two halves had just completed a bloody and costly conflict, one that had seen the North and the South divided not only along the lines of slavery and its abolition, but of states' rights and the direction in which the country should be taken. The eleven Confederate states had not only lost the war, but were left with nothing. The slavery-fueled concept of plantation-farming was gone, thanks to Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. The southern economy and government was in tatters. There was nothing to take the place of these vanished traditions and standards. "

"Andrew Johnson and Reconstruction
Introduction
Because we live in the modern era, few of us ever consider the complexities of governing a young, raucous United States. In the years following the end of the Civil War, the baton of power and responsibility was passed Constitutionally from President Lincoln to then Vice-President Johnson. When the 40th Congress did not agree with President Johnson's policies, they attempted to take that power from him.
As a southerner in a northern administration, Johnson was already an anomaly. In some sense, his political sensibilities were the perfect solution for a country trying to become whole again (Benedict, 1973, 366-367). In his efforts to restart Reconstruction, Johnson combined southern and northern political ..."

Erick McKitrick's "Andrew Johnson and Reconstruction", 2000.
An analysis of Eric McKitrick's assertion that the intense disagreement between Johnson and Congress regarding the postwar social and political structure of the South resulted in Johnson's political destruction.

From the Paper
"Although the American Civil War effectively ended in April, 1865 with the surrenders of Confederate Generals Robert E. Lee and Albert S. Johnston surrendered in Virginia and North Carolina, respectively, the fight for the peace, that is, reconstruction, had merely begun. Reconstruction involved federal control of Southern state governments and the South?s reincorporation into the union, its political reconstruction. Reconstruction began at the end of the Civil War, under the presidency of Andrew Johnson. Eric McKitrick asserts that the intense disagreement between Johnson and Congress regarding the postwar social and political structure of the South resulted in Johnson?s political destruction. Andrew failed to satisfy Northern interests in Reconstruction, was enfeebled as a President and politician, and lost the Reconstruction battle to Congress."

Johnson & Johnson, 2005.
This paper discusses the Johnson & Johnson company especially its major brand-drug Tylenol.

Abstract
This paper explains that, since the 1885 partnership of the Johnson brothers, Johnson & Johnson has had a remarkable growth, world-wide especially, after World War II, when a plan of decentralizing operations was introduced, dividing the consumer market under the brand Johnson & Johnson and the professional markets under the current Ethicon brand label. The author points out that the Tylenol product not only has had problem with product tampering, which led to the introduction of tamper-proof packaging, but also this drug is deemed as having a narrower range between therapeutic and toxic than any other non-prescription drug especially for children. The paper concludes that, today, Johnson & Johnson is (1) a stable company with acceptable growth, but not as venturesome or dynamic in product innovations as some of its rivals and (2) is know as a family-friendly place to work with opportunities, especially for women and minorities.
From the Paper
"Saachi & Saatchi, one of the world's largest advertising agencies, handles some of Johnson & Johnson's consumer products advertising. Tylenol continues its campaign to promote its products as being used and recommended by health care professionals and used in hospitals more than any other "pain reliever". Pepcid AC has a strong campaign, positioned against other antacids as being able to be taken BEFORE a meal, as well as after. Feminine hygiene products are advertised most frequently in soap operas and other programming, aimed at women, of course. It is likely that in the coming year, the Nicorette brand anti-smoking products will increase their coverage, being outspent by rival Nicoderm. Rumors of a Nicorette product (perhaps a chewing gum) aimed at helping teens to stop smoking are not confirmed by the company."

Abstract
This paper is a stock analysis of Johnson & Johnson, Inc. and their efforts at reducing costs, increasing market share, meeting their shareholders and stakeholders as well as industry expectations while still fulfilling the very high levels of quality demanded by their customers. The author uses the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which takes into consideration the inherent risk that is associated with any investment and the rates of return, to determine that Johnson & Johnson's return on investment must be greater than a return of 6.07 percent. The paper concludes that, through new acquisitions, novel business strategies and a regular migration to cheaper labor pools, Johnson & Johnson Inc has become a strong force to be reckoned with in the highly competitive major drugs and healthcare industry; the author recommends a buy order at $60.

From the Paper
"The company has a long history of innovation and success. The founders created the first 'ready-made, ready-to-use surgical dressings' and initiated the way for 'application of the theory of antiseptic wound treatment' in the mid-1880's. These new products and services concepts literally reduced the threat of infection and disease in postoperative victims and helped save many lives in the early days of modern medicine. "The story begins with the discoveries of Sir Joseph Lister, a noted English surgeon, who identified airborne germs as a source of infection in the operating room. He called them, with grim aptness, the "invisible assassins." Medical science was beginning to understand, however imperfectly, the need for greater care in protecting the wound area."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"JNJ's move into markets that require more sophistication in drug development and production is also exemplified by their move into the market for medications to treat Schizophrenia, an area of their business that made up 18% of total 2006 pharmaceutical revenues. The anemia market is another source of challenge for the company as price erosion has been necessary to stem market share losses. We assume revenue erosion in the mid-single digits over the next 3 years with continued competition from Amgen and some modest negative effects from Roche's Cera, expected to launch in May 2007. The anemia franchise (Procrit/Eprex) made up 14% of JNJ's pharmaceutical sales in 2006.
The MD&D division has enjoyed industry leadership, particularly at the company's Cordis business. This previously fast-growing business made up 20% of JNJ's MD&D sales in 2006 and a significant proportion of its profit. Noteworthy competition from Boston Scientific, Abbott, and Medtronic is likely to erode market share beginning in 2007, driving Cordis sales declines in the range of 4% to 19% in 2007-10. The Conor acquisition is expected to be successful.The Consumer division should benefit from the recent acquisition of Pfizer's consumer line."

From the Paper
"On the basis of information provided by Hoover?s (2003), in 1885, in Brunswick, NJ, James and Edward Mead Johnson founded their medical products company and were soon joined by their brother, Robert in 1886. Robert had developed an antiseptic surgical dressing that he wanted to have produced through the company. This represented the beginnings of one of the leading companies in a multitude of industries, including pharmaceutical manufacturing, medical devices and diagnostics manufacturing, and consumer products manufacturing. As Johnson & Johnson moved into the 20th century, the company continued to develop and manufacture products that would long come to be associated its? name."

From the Paper
"Johnson and Johnson does business within the healthcare sector and has industry membership in the major drug field. Because of the nature of this industry and the risk involved with drug manufacture, it can be very difficult to gage and predict its performance over time. Right now the drug industry is suffering the fallout from the recall of Celebrex. There are also other warnings being recently about other drugs such as Strattera. There has been much media scrutiny of the FDA and its prior approval of drugs like Accutane. What does this mean for the market and its companies? For the future, it may mean increased drug testing, which can be extremely costly, and time consuming."
