The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara and other top advisors believed that the U.S. needed to increase its military presence in Vietnam in order to defeat the communists. The measure that was passed by Congress and authorized the use of military force in Vietnam was the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution.

The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution led to the escalation of American troops in the War of Vietnam. It gave the President of the United States the ability to send troops without the specific Congress' approval.

On August 7, 1964, Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. It permitted President Lyndon B. Johnson to maintain peace in Southeast Asia.

What did virginia promotional literature promise prospective settlers?
Iteru [2.4K]
It promised that it was possible to get vast areas of land and become wealthy, however, it was deceptive because people didn't know how much they would have to work on the land and how much physical labor was involved, and many didn't want this type of hard physical labor for themselves.

Identify the 2 reasons why the Civil War began and what was the result at the end of the war.
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

The Civil War erupted from a variety of long-standing tensions and disagreements about American life and politics. For nearly a century, the people and politicians of the Northern and Southern states had been clashing over the issues that finally led to war: economic interests, cultural values, the power of the federal government to control the states, and, most importantly, slavery in American society.

While some of these differences might have been resolved peacefully through diplomacy, the institution of slavery was not among them.

With a way of life steeped in age-old traditions of white supremacy and a mainly agricultural economy that depended on the labor of enslaved people, the Southern states viewed enslavement as essential to their very survival.
