The Vietnam War: "Losing" the War Through the Intervention of the Public. This paper demonstrates how the Vietnam War was presented to the American people, who in turn affected the decisions made by the U.S. government in terms of controlling or promoting military actions. This is done through demonstrating public action in respect to media response and the election of public officials, and how the government in turn influenced the military to change its behaviors. This paper proves that this combination of events helped to allow the United States to "lose" the Vietnam War.
