He didn't have to argue very hard, anyone could see that the Soviets and Red Chinese were supplying aid to the North Vietnamese, which had newly formed in 1954; along with the newly created South Vietnamese government. So the US helped out the South Vietnamese while the two communist super powers helped out the North Vietnamese.

How did the U.S. get involved in the Vietnam war and how deep was our commitment to fighting the action?
If you mean why did the U.S. get involved in the Vietnam war, it was because we erroneously believed if North Vietnam won they their neighbors would come under Communist rule, communist influence it that part of the world. It was called the Domino Theory, if Vietnam fell, neighboring countries would topple soon after.If you mean how did we get involved, it began by President Eisenhower sending advisers, then President Kennedy increasing the force, then we supported assassination of the South's leader, then . . . etc., etc. When Lyndon Johnson became president he escalated it into full out war. He used a false story about some of our ships being attacked by North Vietnam to get Congress and the public to go along. This was called the Tonkin Gulf attack. (This was similar to the way President Bush used the false story of Saddam's Weapons of Mass Destruction to do the same thing a few years ago). Our commitment was great. Once it was war U.S. pride and stature in the world was at sake -- sort of an "In for a penny, in for a pound," sort of a thing.

Kennedy made a big noise later about no formality so that he(JFK) could make the Democratic Republic of Vietnam someone he could speak as an enemy so that he could get votes. Truth was that the Democratic Republic of Vietnam was an allyof the Inited States.
