How did the vietnam war cause a division in the american people?

At the beginning of he war and up to early 1968, America seemed to accept the cost and sacrifices as a legitimate halt to communist expansion.
However, as the conflict dragged on - and casualties increased as did draft numbers, a large part of the population became un-supportive of the war.
Because 1969 was a presidential election year, political rhetoric grew on both sides of the war effort, and further deteriorated the public resolve to support the effort to stop communism in southeast Asia.
