U.S. History - One question!?

• Development of the counterculture - Although the hippie movement died out, much of their beliefs have become the norm. e.g. Environmentalism, rise in "spirituality," dislike of the govt., and acceptance of marijuana.

• Vietnam War - Vietnam is the prototype of American intervention gone wrong. Caused massive protests, caused Lindan Johnson not to succeed a second term, and help mobilize the counterculture.

• Cuban Missile Crisis - It's the closest America has ever came to nuclear war. Since then, we haven't threatened nations with a nuclear option, or escalated conflict with any other nuclear power.

sorry, i won't answer your home work problems for you. That's why it's called homework. You are entrusted by the teacher to do the work yourself after reading all the information and making your own conclusions. Good luck.

But most Americans don't believe that events like these ever really happen. :-)
