Answer:

Explanation:

The Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution was passed in 1971 as part of the Bill of Rights, aiming to regulate criminal processes. It is applicable to every public administration office (at the federal, state or local levels), enterprise, association or individual in the United States.

Among other provisions, it contains protections against several manners of self-incrimination, such as the right of defendants of not not serving as a witness in the criminal case in which they are accused of a crime.  Therefore, defendants are able to refuse to participate if they believe that answers to the questions that arise during the procedure can incriminate them.

Which characteristic of the Vietnam War was central to changing public opinion about the war?
galben [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Well if was a few things, first was the idea of why are we fighting to protect the democracy of a country have way across the world especially when many South Vietnamese government seemed on the edge of collapse and was oppressing the Buddhist majority, then fact that we had a draft here, however politicians refused to activate the reserve and the national guard so many young people who were forced to serve were upset, then many people believed the Vietnamese people had the right to self determination.

but the many TL DR reason was just how many Americans were being killed in the pointless war and how many Americans were captured, also in 1967 and 1968 when it seemed like we couldn't win the war, and when documents were released saying that LBJ didn't think we could win either that really hurt support for the war
