Mutually assured destruction was an agreed upon course of action that stated if two countries were to get into a nuclear war, a majority of the populations of both the countries would dwindle and utterly destroy both. Because both the U.S. and U.S.S.R. did not want to lose themselves as countries and their populations, the Cold war never had any nuclear action taken, hence the nme Cold War.

The Vietnam War saw to the US's superior industrial, population, and military superiority, as well as the extensive usage of tactics and military industrial advantages. In fact, the Vietcong, even with the then USSR and Communist China's backing, was slowly losing grip and was losing at that point. However, the anti-war viewpoint became increasingly popular, as the reason for the US to join was inadequate at best, and the views of fighting another countries battle and seeing their own young men come home wrapped in the American flag' was unbearable to the US general public, therefore support was withdrawn. If the US continued to push after the Tet Offensive, then the US would have been able to claim the Vietnam War as a victory, rather than a strategic withdrawal, which led to the eventual demise of South Vietnam.

Roosevelt revolutionized the U.S. Presidency. Many credit him with establishing the modern presidency. Speaking softly and carrying a big stick meant that American power was to be respected in domestic and international contexts. As president, he was a negotiator and peace maker as demonstrated in his successful negotiation of the Russo-Japanese War (1905), for which he won the Nobel Peace Prize. He also played an important role in Progressive Era Reforms such as the Pure Food and Drug Act.
