The answer is D. It provided President Lyndon Johnson to use conventional
military force in Vietnam.  Initially the
U.S. only wanted to assist the South Vietnamese army against the North but
eventually it got more involved in the war. Public opinion in America went
against the war and that led to U.S. withdrawal from Vietnam.
