BiographyEugene McCarthy, having a background serving ten years in the House of Representatives (1949-1959) and thirteen in the U.S. Senate (1959-1971), was seeking the Democratic presidential nomination during his 1968 campaign but witnessed defeat from his opponent, Lyndon B. Johnson (1908-1973). McCarthy, devoted to the values and principles of democratic self-government, also emphasized the importance of aspects such as social justice and political morality, resulting in his influence regarding reforms of political processes and ultimately playing a role in reshaping the environment of politics in the United States.
