The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution of 1964, passed on the basis of factual claims later shown to be false or exaggerated, had been used to justify an open-ended military commitment that the country spent a decade trying to escape. Congress intended that no president would again commit American forces to armed conflict without the collective judgment of the legislative branch bearing on the decision.
