B. not seek reelection because he was so popular.
C. admit an error and lower the number of troops in Vietnam.

I'm stuck between choices C and D, not sure which one to choose.

Answer 1

Both could be correct, but I lean toward C.

Answer 2

I lean toward D. LBJ did not admit publicly the war was an error, and although he began peace negotiations, he did not reduce the number of troops involved.

Answer 3

yeah I was leaning towards C too because the war was actually popular with some people.

Answer 4

Drwls is probably right.

Answer 5

OK thanks! I'll go with D then.

Answer 6

I've worked with Drwls for about 13 years and he's usually right. :-)
