Johnson was born at a time when segregation was still flourishing in his home state of Missouri and black people did not have the right to go to the same schools as the whites.

Could one of the ten children of a factory worker have dreamed of something great, whose "commercial" experience was limited to the delivery of newspapers around the county? But Johnson wanted to get a higher education - and achieved his, the only one from the family.

At the University of Illinois, he had a new dream: to enter the diplomatic service and become an ambassador. The first step in this direction Johnson did when enrolled in the MBA course in international relations in Princeton, and then moved to Washington and acted as an assistant to the congressman. At one party, someone said that he would have turned out to be a "good lobbyist for cable television." Although Johnson did not particularly represent what he was talking about, he went to the proposed meeting.
