Explanation:

First Question (Walter Cronkite's 1968 Editorial)

Walter Cronkite's 1968 TV editorial on the Vietnam War stated that America could not win the war, which contradicted the official narrative and shocked the public. The other options are incorrect: there was no claim about nuclear weapons, protests hurting the war effort, or a specific draft of 100,000 men in this editorial.

The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution gave the president (Lyndon B. Johnson) broad authority to conduct military operations in Vietnam without a formal declaration of war. It did not give Congress control (Congress ceded some authority), the president already couldn't declare war (Congress has that power), and it was about Vietnam, not SEATO support.

Answer:

B. He said that America could not win the war.
