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.

<em>Minnesota, constituent state of the United States of America. It became the 32nd state of the union on May 11, 1858. A small extension of the northern boundary makes Minnesota the most northerly of the 48 conterminous U.S. states. (This peculiar protrusion is the result of a boundary agreement with Great Britain before the area had been carefully surveyed.) Minnesota is one of the north-central states. It is bounded by the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Ontario to the north, by Lake Superior and the state of Wisconsin to the east, and by the states of Iowa to the south and South Dakota and North Dakota to the west. </em>
