Question 13 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 2

After the Tet Offensive in Vietnam, President Johnson

Answer
A
chose not to run for reelection in 1968.
B
escalated the bombing of North Vietnam.
C
decided that the US had a good chance of winning.
D
signed a peace agreement with North Vietnam.

Explanation

The Tet Offensive in 1968 showed that North Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces could launch a major attack, despite earlier claims that the United States was close to victory. Facing growing opposition to the war, Johnson announced that he would not seek reelection. He did not sign a peace agreement at that time, so the correct choice is “chose not to run for reelection in 1968.”
