Answer 11

(MC)The quote below comes from the Tonkin Gulf Resolution:

Whereas the United States is assisting the peoples of southeast Asia to protect their freedom and has no territorial, military or political ambitions in that area, but desires only that these people should be left in peace to work out their destinies in their own way... Congress approves and supports the determination of the President, as Commander in Chief, to take all necessary measures to repel any armed attack against the forces of the United States and to prevent further aggression.

allowed the president to use U.S. to dramatically increase troops to Vietnam
an intensification of the nuclear arms between the United States and the Soviet Union
