Ho Chi Minh wasn't the bad guy American history books made him out to be. Even LBJ said we misunderstood him. He wanted to free his country from French rule and unite it, much like Lincoln wanted to keep the US united, thus the civil war. Read a few books from southern asian historians and you'll get a very different view of Uncle Ho.I definately have to agree with you on this point. He's made out to be a villian by American historians. Not so. He might not have become communisty if only America hadn't ignored him. Vietnam was such an incorrect war in so many ways. We never should have gotten involved.
