I lived through Vietnam as a kid but I sure don’t dwell on it. The Democrats always circle around to the Civil Rights movement and Vietnam because they felt they were on the right side of history in that era.

How could the hippies possibly be on the right side of history when their President (JFK) started the conflict, then
ramped it up (LBJ) to 700,000 or so US military folks? The only significant thing the Republicans did about the VN conflict was to end it (Nixon).
