John Kerry & the Bitch
And, Kennedy was talking about reducing our involvement in VN.
And, despite Johnson committing 1000s of soldiers to VN, he also
pushed through the "Great Society," which included civil rights.
And, although Nixon did end the war eventually, he was an even
bigger liar than Bush.

All facts beyond dispute.
And then, there's what really happened...
Kennedy increased the number of US troops already in Viet Nam... but the
net of treaties obligating us to do so were created under Eisenhower.
Expanded by Johnson- yes and you might also want to look up who was
complicit in misleading Congress over the Gulf of Tonkin incident.
Viet Nam War ended by Nixon... six years after he won the office of
President based on his promises to do so... several tens of thousands of
American lives lost because Nixon could not honor his promise and did
not want to go down in history as a President who lost a war.
