Congress demonstrated its superiority over the President in the making of American foreign policy. b. Congress limited the President’s powers as Commander in Chief of U.S. armed forces. c. Congress surrendered its war-making powers to the President. d. Congress gave the President war-making powers in Vietnam without a formal declaration of war.
Without access to the image you're referring to, it's a bit difficult to provide a precise answer. However, if the resolution you are referring to is the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution of August 1964, then the most fitting answer would be: d. Congress gave the President war-making powers in Vietnam without a formal declaration of war. This resolution granted President Lyndon B. Johnson the authority to assist any Southeast Asian country whose government was considered to be jeopardized by "communist aggression". The resolution served as Johnson's legal justification for deploying U.S. combat forces and the commencement of open warfare against North Vietnam.
