AP US Government
Unit 2 – Branches of Government
Topic 2.6
How did the Vietnam War affect presidents' use of military authority without a formal declaration of war from Congress?
It had no effect as presidents always sought explicit Congressional approval before any military intervention.
It increased as presidents committed troops and resources without obtaining Congressional approval.
It decreased due to public opposition against foreign military interventions.
Presidents gave up their prerogative to command troops in order to appease anti-war sentiment domestically.
