This photograph shows, from left, Under Secretary of State for Economic and Agricultural Affairs George Ball, Secretary of State Dean Rusk, President Lyndon B. Johnson, Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, and National Security Adviser McGeorge Bundy. When then Vice President Johnson spoke reverentially of Kennedy’s brilliant advisers, whom he retained as President, fellow Texan Congressman Sam Rayburn said, “I’d feel a lot better if some of them had run for sheriff just once.”
