In 1967, events such as the escalation of the Vietnam War, widespread protests against U.S. involvement, and the resulting social unrest overshadowed the War on Poverty initiatives. The conflict diverted public attention and government resources away from domestic programs aimed at reducing poverty. Additionally, the Civil Rights Movement continued to highlight systemic inequalities, which often took precedence in the media and public discourse over poverty alleviation efforts. These factors contributed to a perception that the War on Poverty was losing momentum amid mounting international and social challenges.
Any war that is not known to people (no books, no movies, etc.) is known as a "forgotten war." The Revolutionary War of 1776 overshadowed the French and Indian War. WW2 overshadowed WW1; Korea was overshadowed by the Vietnam War.

Two big events in other countries that prompted people to move to US in the late 19th and early 20th century was war and poverty.
the forgotten war was the Korean War. The Korean War is called that because it was overshadowed by WWII and the Vietnam War.
Lyndon Johnson is noted for his war on poverty . Some say that poverty won.
Your question is unclear. Do you mean Lyndon Johnson's "War on poverty" or "The Vietnam War?" Never heard of a "Vietnam war on poverty."
The war on poverty.
The Great War (WW1) was simply overshadowed by WW2.
I think poverty war is worse since the climate are uncontrolled and the chance to win a poverty war are higher but I need more ideas so what do u think
The Vietnam war distracted the American people from Johnson's plan for a "Great Society".
