Vietnam War Opposition

I plan to do the optional assignment which was to support the war in Vietnam.

1. Note all of the reasons why you feel the war in Vietnam is wrong.
(I'll do why it's right)

1. It is to stop the spread of the evil communism.
2. We are protecting the rights of the Vietnamese people, to be a free nation and not have to be ruled by a dictator.
3. We need to look out for our own intrests in the matter as well, it is necessary to protect ourselfs against the communists in the cold war and haveing another communist nation in Southeast Asia would start a domino effect which would cause many more nations to fall, giving the communists an upperhand in the cold war.

2. Note what you re trying to achieve with this poster.

With my poster I'll be trying to convince people that the war is a necessary one for the US and that it is worth every effort and dollar being spent to win and stop the spread of communism.

3. List possible images for your poster. Think about: background (e.g. destroyed villages); the central image (e.g. picture of a young soldier); whether you will need words to explain your image.

Images I can use could be a mixture of awe inspiring patriotic photos (flag being lifted from world war 2 ect) and pictures depicting communism as evil. This way it gives the message that the US, which has historically been a defender of moral rightnes, is once again going to war to protect the free world from another dangerous evil

4. List some possible slogans for your poster.

"America, we must once again protect ourselfs and the worldfrom another evil threat"
