subbie:
I must have missed the Vietnamese invasion of the U.S.
This is just a rhetorical jab, I know. But it's worth mentioning that no American leader suggested Vietnamese Communists would invade the US.
Leaders in both parties were concerned that, per the domino theory, the fall of Vietnam would herald the fall of neighboring countries to Communist dictatorships.
Countries like Laos and Cambodia, for example.
Carry on.
