Following are the three basic principles upon which the new system of government was created:
<span>
1. Popular Sovereignty - This principle states that the source of governmental power lies with the people. This belief stems from the idea that government should be for the benefit of its citizens. If the government is not protecting the people, it should be dissolved.
2. Limited Government - Since the people give government its power, government itself is limited to the power given to it by them. In other words, the US government does not derive its power from itself. It must follow its own laws and it can only act using powers given to it by the people.
3. Separation of Powers - As stated previously, the US Government is divided into three branches so that no one branch has all the power. Each branch has its own purpose: to make the laws, execute the laws, and interpret the laws. </span>

Answer:
"Thousands of Americans were killed, wounded, imprisoned, made gravely ill, or driven to death (suiside) by the war. The government finally abolished the draft, which had been a point of great controversy during most of the war (“Working Class War”), and placed limits on the president’s powers through the War Powers Act of 1973 (president must inform Congress within 48 hours of deploying troops and 90 day maximum deployment without Congressional approval). During much of the war, Americans were deeply divided (Living-Room War). Those who supported (hawks) and those who opposed (doves) the war often felt great hostility toward one another. Americans developed a more cynical attitude toward government and politicians as a result of war-related lies, deceptions, and questionable activities carried out by the Johnson and Nixon administrations (Pentagon Papers). Americans became more cautious about foreign policy decisions that might require sending US troops to intervene in other nations’ affairs."
