This source will be very useful to the argument, especially in the presentation form of a
website. The image shows Vietnam war protesters burning the American flag in defiance
of the country. Therefore, the image embodies the rejection of the United States
Government that the war caused. This image will fit right into a website, where it can be
presented and explained in a neat manner. Moreover, the image is a primary source
because it was taken in 1969.

This source provides useful analysis of public opinion during the Vietnam war through
polls and data. It explains the reasons behind protests and opposition to the war, and then
gives graphs, figures, and statistics to explain. The information in the source is very
extensive, as the report is 112 pages in total. Another important aspect of the source is
that it also provides data figures for the Korean War, which will help in showing the state
of public opinion in the years before Vietnam. The data and information provided by the
report will be very useful as evidence.

This website will be used strictly for background information on Vietnam War protests
and protesters. It breaks down the anti-war movement into several sections based on the
time period, which will help to show the decline of public opinion of government through
the duration of the war. The source will help explain the motives and workings behind
anti-war protests. This certain web page comes from a site dedicated to the Vietnam War,
so the information is extensive and most likely credible.
War Powers Resolution, H.R.J. Res. 555 (1973).
http://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/warpower.asp.
This resolution was passed to limit the presidents ability to send troops into war without
Congressional oversight. The passage of the act is legislative evidence of distrust in
those who hold power and regulation to combat it. Mainly, the passage of the resolution
serves as evidence enough of the distrust of government, but it could also be quoted in
areas of the website pertaining to abuse of power by government leaders. Moreover, the
resolution is a primary source because it was passed in 1973 at the tail end of the Vietnam
War.
