Unlike most presidents, Johnson has a distant background in the aristocracy. He owned a tailoring shop in the state of Tennessee, the "volunteering state".

In local debates, he defended the common man and attacked the plantation aristocracy. In the 1840s and 1850s, as a member of the House and Senate, he defended a bill to provide free land to the poor.

Johnson remained in the Senate even when Tennessee, along with the other southern states, joined the secession. The decision made him popular in the northern United States, as Johnson was showing himself to be in favor of the Union, not of the break-up of the United States.
