Johnson, 36th U.S. president, 1963-1969 And career life after presidency is an interesting study, as well. Clinton was only 54 when he left office. Like Lyndon B. Johnson, he developed his presidential library and prepared his memories. Like Nixon, he worked to repair his public imageâ€"his brandâ€" and created a role for himself as an elder statesman. He also followed Jimmy Carter’s example, and parlayed his interest in foreign affairs into work as an independent ambassador. Many former presidents remained part of public life, usually as public speakers or writers. A few even returned to Washington. After his presidency, John Quincy Adams served nine terms in Congress. Andrew Johnson returned to the job as a senator. Herbert Hoover served on the federal commission on federal reform that bore his name. William Taft made history when he was appointed to the Supreme Court, where he served from 1921 until his death in 1930. So rewarding was this turn of events, that he later said, “I don’t remember that I was ever President.” With a dream backed by strategies and tactics to get there,   your career opportunities are truly amazing! Despite our current economic challenges, we live in a country where all things are possible!
