We CANNOT talk about the MC. EVER. lol.

As far as the DBQ, I mentioned:

social:
- anti-war movement and what that entailed.... Kent State, Slaughterhouse-Five, etc.
- Civil Rights Movement (MLK's document)
- LBJ's Great Society

political: this was by far my longest section.
- tet offensive
- election of 1968... assassination of RK, formation of Hawks/Doves
- extension of executive power through the Tonkin Gulf
- Vietnamization, Cambodia, etc.
- War Powers Act

economic:
- "stagflation"
- increased military spending
- strain placed on economy by Great Society welfare programs + war funding
