Introduction
Domestic policy is a broad area of public policy, which deals with laws, government programs, and administrative decisions which are directly related to all things that directly affect the people in its own country ("Cambridge Dictionaries Online (US)"). I will be analyzing the three presidents: Lyndon B. Johnson, Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton, on the basis of how strong or limited they were on their domestic policies.
Bill Clinton was chosen for being able to balance the budget and bring the unemployment rate down to its’ lowest. William “Bill” Clinton was born on August 19, 1946, in Hope, Arkansas.

The middle president is Bill Clinton, because he focused on more domestic policies than the limited president, and made the effort to do more. He is limited to the strong president, because his abilities to persuade Congress and other political actors was weaker compared to the strong president. Lyndon B. Johnson is the strong president in domestic policy. He addresses several issues using his legal powers, like the economy, poverty, civil rights, and health-care. The Johnson Treatment is a strong Political Power skill that he used effectively in getting legislation passed. Therefore, Johnson is the strongest of them all, because he uses each perspective
