January 20, 1965 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0312060270?ie=UTF8&tag=doc06-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0312060270 Watch the full film: http://thefilmarchived.blogspot.com/2010/09/president-lyndon-b-johnson-inauguration.html
While losing quite badly in the 1964 election, some political pundits and historians believe Goldwater laid the foundation for the conservative revolution to follow. Ronald Reagan’s speech on Goldwater’s behalf, grassroots organization, and the conservative takeover (although temporary in the 60′s) of the Republican party would all help to bring about the “Reagan Revolution” of the 1980s. Indeed, many of today’s leading politicians first entered politics to work for Goldwater, including Hillary Clinton.
Johnson went from his victory in the 1964 election to launch the Great Society program at home, signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and starting the War on Poverty. He also escalated the Vietnam War, which eroded his popularity. By 1968, Johnson’s popularity had declined and the Democrats became so split over his candidacy that he withdrew as a candidate. Moreover, his support of civil rights for African-Americans helped split union members and Southerners away from Franklin Roosevelt’s Democratic New Deal Coalition, which would later lead to the phenomenon of the “Reagan Democrat”. Of the eleven presidential elections that followed, Democrats would win only four times. Columnist George Will had this to say about the lasting effects of the 1964 election: “It took 16 years to count the votes, and Goldwater won.”
The election also shifted the African-American voting electorate away from the Republican Party due to Goldwater’s opposition to federal civil rights laws. Since the 1964 election, Democratic presidential candidates have almost consistently won more than 90% of the African-American vote in each presidential election.
* The 1964 election was the only time in American history where all of the outer southern states (Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia) went for one political party and all of the deep southern states (Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina) went for the other political party.
* Significantly, the 1964 election was the first time since Reconstruction in the 1870s that a Republican presidential candidate carried the states of Alabama, Mississippi, and South Carolina. It was the first time Georgia ever voted Republican. In future elections these states, along with the rest of the South, would vote increasingly Republican.
* The 1964 election marked the first time in history that the Democratic ticket won the electoral votes of the state of Vermont, and the first time that the Democratic ticket won Maine with an absolute majority of votes cast, instead of a plurality.
* This was the first election in which the District of Columbia participated in the electoral college. There were 538 electors, compared to 537 in 1960; included were 3 electors for the District of Columbia, but this was offset by the U.S. House of Representatives membership going from 437 back to 435 when it was reapportioned in accordance with the 1960 census.
* 1964 would be the last time in which any candidate from the two major parties would receive at least 80% of the popular vote in a statewide contest (excluding the District of Columbia). Johnson took 81% of the Rhode Island popular vote, and Goldwater took 87% of the Mississippi popular vote.
* Despite the assassination of John F. Kennedy being a catalyst for the Democratic landslide in 1964, Robert Kennedy received only 54% of the popular vote in his US Senate campaign in New York. Meanwhile, Lyndon Johnson received 69% of the popular vote in his Presidential campaign in New York.
* Lyndon Johnson and Hubert Humphrey both comfortably won their home states (Texas and Minnesota, respectively). However, Goldwater barely won his home state of Arizona; he won it by less than 1 percentage point, or around 5000 votes. William E. Miller lost his home state of New York by 37 percentage points.
* The 1964 election was the last time to date that any of the following states: Alaska, Idaho, Kansas, Nebraska (although Barack Obama won one of their electoral votes in 2008), North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming voted for a Democratic candidate. It is also the only time in Alaskan history that the state voted Democratic. The Democratic ticket would not win Virginia or Indiana again until Barack Obama won both in 2008. Also, this is the last time that Oregon or Iowa would vote Democratic until 1988. Finally, this was the last time until 1992 that any of the following states voted for a Democrat: California, Colorado, Illinois, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, and Vermont.

On 30 June 2010, a turnover of the administration of the Government of the Republic of the Philippines will take place.
The inauguration into office of the President and Vice President of the Republic of the Philippines is traditionally conducted in Barasoain Church in Malolos City, Bulacan; or in front of the House of Representatives in Batasan Hills, Quezon City; or at the Luneta Quirino Grandstand, Manila.
However, the 14th President broke this tradition in 2004 when Her Excellency President Maria Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo delivered a pre-inaugural at the Luneta Quirino Grandstand before proceeding to Cebu City for the inaugural rites.
Let us take a look on how it was done through this video documentation from the Office of the Press Secretary, Office of the President of the Republic of the Philippines.
