Congress restricted the president's war making power by introducing the veto procedure. This made possible by the separation of power that exists in the three branches of government namely executive, legislative and judicial.

After the Vietnam War the war powers act was passed. Basically it said that if a president wanted to put troops in a war zone he had to have approval of congress. Before this the president didn't need to get approval for a short period of time or a "police action." Vietnam never was a declared war so none of the Vietnam presidents went to congress to put men into Southeast Asia.
