I'm watching the History Channel and it's featuring actual voice playback f/ Johnson. I heard him say he feared impeachment for pulling out.|||It was a war started by a Democrat (Kennedy), and ended by a Republican (Nixon).
I'm not sure what Johnson's concerns were based on, but Republicans were not hawks at that time. Maybe Johnson was just full of $#!%.|||Using Johnson's own words. "We will win this war!" And then he turned around and wouldn't let our guys fight.
His lack of judgment when it came to Vietnam is the reason why many former Democrats became Republicans. My own father spent two tours fighting a senseless war that couldn't be won and went from being a Kennedy Democrat to a registered Republican.|||i would have kicked his a** for it
the VN war should have been prosecuted to the fullest
