Title:
Apollo_program

Context:
On April 20, Kennedy sent a memo to Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson, asking Johnson to look into the status of America's space program, and into programs that could offer NASA the opportunity to catch up. Johnson responded approximately one week later, concluding that "we are neither making maximum effort nor achieving results necessary if this country is to reach a position of leadership." His memo concluded that a manned Moon landing was far enough in the future that it was likely the United States would achieve it first.

Question:
What was the general consensus Johnson came to regarding America's progress on going to space and reaching a position of leadership?

neither making maximum effort nor achieving results necessary
