C. An authorization for the president to use military forces in Vietnam

Explanation: The administration of President Johnson had been working on a resolution that will give the full authority to have a direct military action in Vietnam.

they are the executive, (president and about 5,000,000 workers) legislative (senate and house of representatives) and judicial (supreme court and lower courts). the president of the united states administers the executive branch of our government.

regarding the law, the 15th amendment was specifically designed thinking in the rights of black free men.

even though ratified on february 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th amendment would not be fully applied for a long time.poll taxes and literacy tests would allow southern states disenfranchise african americans. only in 1965 the voting rights for african americans would be actually able to vote in the south.

in 1965, president johnson signed the voting rights act, which aimed to overcome legal barriers that prevented african americans from voting as it was guaranteed by the 15th amendment to the u.s. constitution.
