Question

Which twentieth-century president am I? I took office following the assassination of the previous president in 1963. I spent the years of my term dealing with the Vietnam War. Initially I believed military aid and advisors were all that were necessary for the U.S. to assist in stopping the spread of Communism. However by 1964, it became clear that the South Vietnamese needed combat help, and 20,000 U.S. troops were sent to help. The U.S. needed to show the world that it would not tolerate Communism. I also helped to pass vital Civil Rights legislation. Calvin Coolidge Dwight Eisenhower Franklin D. Roosevelt Herbert Hoover John F. Kennedy Lyndon B. Johnson

Answer 1

The Correct answer is Lyndon B. Johnson.

Johnson became the 36th President following the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963.

During his time as President, he passed the 1964 Civil Rights Act and also increased the number of U.S troops who were sent to help with the Vietnam war.

Answer 2

Answer:

Lyndon B. Johnson

Step-by-step explanation:

Lyndon Baines Johnson, widely known by his initials LBJ, was the 36th President of the United States of America who took the presidency following the assassination of the previous President John F. Kennedy from 1963 to 1969.

He spent most of his term dealing with the Vietnam War and escalated American involvement in it. By 1964,  he was granted the power to use military force in Southeast Asia without having any permission for an official declaration of war and so 20,000 U.S. troops were sent to the Vietnam.
