I don’t think so. The RATS got us involved in that mess and it took a Republican to get us out. We claimed we were fighting communism. The communists kicked us out and Vietnam went full commie. Now they are one of our major trading partners and Vietnam is one of America’s favorite places to vacation and spend their money.

"The RATS got us involved in that mess and it took a Republican to get us out."

When I was growing up in the 50's and 60's, the saying back then was: "Democrats start the wars. Republicans have to finish them."

And Vietnamese youth today lament the actions of their parents and grandparents.

"We could've been Seoul or Tokyo is only we let the Americans stay." is a popular sentiment.
