RE: The Vietnam War myth
And the war was the first time the U.S. gave the president war powers.

The first use of such powers was done by Thomas Jeffersion in the war with the Barbary pirates. After dispatching a US fleet - Jefferson informed congress but there was no declaration of war. For a while there were joint operations with the Swedish navy in the fight against the Barbary pirates. This war is the source of the line - to the shores of Tripoli in the Marine Corps Hymn.
