Question

Which of the following is a true statement about the Great Society?

It was President Kennedy's original idea.

Vietnam was the main cause of its end.

Congress blocked every proposed law.

Great Society laws were conservative

Answer 1

A few ideas for the Great Society were inherited from Kennedy, and Congress passed most of the legislation backing it early on thanks to a large number of Democratic allies that Johnson could rely on thanks to their sweeping victories in the elections. And Great Society laws were certainly not conservative -- they were incredibly liberal on the face of what they offered.

But what is true is that the shadow of Vietnam eventually killed whatever progress he could muster for it at the end of his term. Though a lot of was done, Johnson didn't complete everything he set out to do. Funding for the war in Vietnam forced cutbacks in programs meant for the Great Society and the growing unpopularity of the conflict damaged his political capital to help promote it.

Answer 2

so D ?

Answer 3
