Lyndon Johnson actually said...

Our aims are, I know, identical with yours: to enable your government to protect its people from the acts of terror perpetrated by Communist...

We shall maintain in Vietnam American personnel and material as needed to assist you in achieving victory.

In our hands have been placed the fortunes of peace and the hope of millions; it is my fervent hope that we are good stewards of that trust.

We have declared unconditional war on poverty. Our objective is total victory.
