Answer:
When World War I broke out across Europe in 1914, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the United States would remain neutral, and many Americans supported this policy of nonintervention. However, public opinion about neutrality started to change after the sinking of the British ocean liner Lusitania by a German U-boat in 1915; almost 2,000 people perished, including 128 Americans. Along with news of the Zimmerman telegram threatening an alliance between Germany and Mexico, Wilson asked Congress for a declaration of war against Germany. The U.S. officially entered the conflict on April 6, 1917.

By the late 1960s, US political and military leaders got convinced they could not win the war by any means. The war would extend indefinitely - an unacceptable option - and the Communist North Vietnamese were determined to resist as long as it was necessary, despite the horrendous suffering and destruction; actually this is what the Vietnamese have done throughout their history against foreign occupiers since ancient times. The exorbitant financial cost of the war was also a major headache for the government. And there were the rising numbers of American casualties, a fact that was politically negative. Another major factor was the powerful peace movement in the USA, many people were opposed to the continuation of the war, social support for US involvement in Southeast Asia wasn´t strong. The US could not win that war.
