The correct answer is A) Some people believed that the draft targeted poorer citizens.

The other options of the question were B) Both men and women were drafted to serve in the war. C) President Johnson was opposed to the draft. D) US leaders believed that the draft slowed the war effort.

One reason the draft was unpopular was that some people believed that the draft targeted poorer citizens.

Women were not drafted to go to the Vietnam War, some of them went voluntarily.

On July 28, 1965, President Lyndon B. Jhonson made a  difficult announcement. He ordered to increase the number of drafted men to send them to Vietnam. The US troops already had approximately 75,00o soldiers in the region but President Jhonson wanted to complete the number to 125,000. Many citizens considered that basically, the draft targeted poorer citizens.

How can the creation of a new empire impact of people and culture of a region
Ksju [112]
It can either bring people together into a new fused culture, or it can diffuse them. If various people exist of various cultures and a new empire rises then the leader has to accept all the people into his empire. This means that the cultures all exist and since they all have to behave according to what the emperor says, the cultures often mix and create somewhat of a mixed culture.If the empire separates people then it leads to diffusion because new aspects of cultures develop independently.
