Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon were Presidents during American involvement.
The conflict lasted from 1954 to 1976, with the US being involved from 1964 to 1972. The Presidents during this period were:
Dwight Eisenhower (1953-61)
John Kennedy (1961-3)
Lyndon Johnson (1963-9) Escalated the war
Richard Nixon (1969-74) Withdrew American forces
Gerald Ford (1974-7)
Vietnam was not a war it was an action.
There is no question that President Lyndon Johnson was in charge of America's military effort in Vietnam, as Commander In Chief, and the war escalated because he escalated it.
President Eisenhower sent US Military Advisers to South Vietnam in 1955.
Yes. Vietnam was a French colony. They lost a Vietnam War and were thrown out of Vietnam before America tried to win a war in Vietnam. America also lost a Vietnam War.
The Vietnam War made America stronger.
America was defending Vietnam.
In 1955 Mr. Ngo Dinh Diem became president of South Vietnam.
The Vietnam war ended in 1975, Gerald Ford was president.
The Vietnam War=the military draft!
The costs for America in the Vietnam war was $140 billion
no hahah he was running for president during the vietnam war
I believe that was Lyndon B. Johnson. America's involvement in Vietnam was limited until he became president. According to Wikipedia, "It was Johnson who began America's direct involvement in the ground war in Vietnam." See the Related Links below for more information.
