war, did we have a declaration of war in vietnam?>> no, we did not. this is a problem, you know, when a president like truman says, well, i'm just not going to go ask for declaration because it's going to cause me problems, creates a precedent that later presidents might use for bad purposes. lyndon johnson dealt with attacks, one of the attacks did not happen, he went to congress and asked for a resolution to use for in response but passed overwhelming and resolution for the next 9 years or so, lyndon johnson and richard nixon waged the whole vietnam war and both on resolution, both on at least one attack that did not happen and the result is that ever since then and my book only goes to vietnam because that's why i write history and later things are too recent, we have never again done, had a president go to congress and say i want a declaration, we've had resolutions but not what the congress ask for. >> did he knew it was based on false information. >> he knew within a couple of weeks but did not go back to congress and say, didn
