Why do you suppose texas is nicknamed the lone star state

because of when they were on their own, in a sense they were rebels, the confederate flag was part of it too, i think it had to do something with mexio’s border.

Explanation:

Because, the way it got it's name was from the citizens of Texas fighting, and Texas being alone and fighting alone for so many years. It could also represent the star that shows up on the American flag.

I hope this is helpful to you. I'm sorry if it's not.

( sorry my answer is short they wont let me do just war so ignore this) xd

the quote by walter cronkite contributes to the central idea of the text by supporting the central idea. cronkite argues that what is deemed “right” for and in america may not be good for other countries. this supports the central idea of the text, that the vietnam war was unpopular in america for multiple reasons- including cronkite’s.
