What is Johnson’s rationale for the Gulf of Tonkin resolution? How does it change American involvement in Vietnam? What powers does it give Johnson? How strategies and sources do the directors of the documentary The Vietnam War use to convey the history? How do the clips add to or complicate the information in the Crash Course videos? What, in the assignment, particularly stands out to you and why? (Such as what interests you, upsets you, confuses you, etc. There is not a wrong answer to this last question, as long as you answer it in your own words.)
