The Vietnam era policies of Dwight Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy differed substantially because they occurred at decidedly different moments in the evolution of the conflict. Eisenhower, who was President of the United States in the 1950's, inherited the conflict after the defeat of the French in what was called Indochina in 1954. Eisenhower provided military aid to the French but avoided military involvement.  An international conference was convened in Geneva.  A cease-fire agreement and partition of the country into Northern and Southern Vietnam was achieved. This was a temporary arrangement and a vote was scheduled for reunification. Convinced that the reunification of the country could lead to Communist control throughout, the U.S. backed leader  resisted holding elections for this purpose. The U.S. in turn gave more than 1 billion in aid between 1955 and 1961. This aid failed to stabilize South Vietnam. Utilized the domino theory, the Cold War ideology that if one country fell to Communism then others would follow, President Kennedy tripled U.S. support. He also tripled the number of military advisers and the number swelled to sixteen thousand. Protests expanded against the South Vietnamese government  led by Buddhist priests and students. The policies of Eisenhower and Kennedy laid the groundwork for the subsequent escalation of the Vietnam War under Lyndon Baines Johnson.

What military advantage did Germany have over France at the beginning of
k0ka [10]

Answer:

D. Germany had rebuilt quickly following World War I, while France's

economy was in ruins.

Explanation:

The battle of France in the context of World War II began after the attack of the <em>Wehrmacht</em> (German armed forces) on the territory of France and the Benelux on May 10, 1940, and ended with the capitulation of the French government on 25 June of the same year. After the German invasion of Poland in September 1939, France and the United Kingdom declared war on the invading country. However, the Western Front remained inactive for more than seven months. During this time of relative peace, the French backed down behind the Maginot Line and prepared with the English a defensive line along the border between France and Belgium, which had declared itself neutral, thus compromising the effectiveness of the Allied defense. The situation in London and Paris was one of confidence in the German defeat, although the rapid Axis victories in Poland and Norway began to make the Allies nervous. France had lost all its best weapons by that time as well as its best divisions, and its armored forces were void. Without reservations to repel the German advance through France, they ran free throughout the north and center of the country.

RSB [31]
The term length in the United States Senate would be "6 years," since the Founding Fathers wanted the Senators to be able to make decisions without constantly having to think about re-election.
