What was the role of each individual president in the Vietnam War?
And what was President Johnson's role?
President Johnson is often associated with the Vietnam War, as he significantly escalated U.S. involvement by deploying hundreds of thousands of troops to Southeast Asia. He also authorized the use of chemical weapons like Agent Orange and Napalm, and he was ultimately responsible for drafting the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which gave him broad powers to use force against North Vietnam.
