By the end of Lyndon Johnson's administration, the Vietnam War was stalemated and unresolved. Half a million American soldiers were stationed in Vietnam but they were unable to prevent North Vietnamese infiltration of South Vietnam while the North Vietnamese army was unable to inflict any serious defeat on the American Army.

President Lyndon Johnson fervently supported the army of South Vietnam. However, he was reluctant to send US troops as it would decline his popularity and he wanted to win in the 1964 election. He supported sabotage efforts by Operation Plan 34B in North Vietnam. Johnson sent US troops to South Vietnam shortly after his election.

Lyndon Johnson did not end the Vietnam War. LBJ actually increased the American presence in South East Asia by tens of thousands of troops and escalated the war effort. It was Richard Nixon that ran on platform to end the war. In 1969 Nixon both bombed Laos, Cambodia and north Vietnam as well as withdrawing hundreds of thousands of troops in the next few years. After Nixon's resignation the US withdrew completely from Vietnam under Gerald Ford.
