Our country won the last big fight in Viet Nam, then pulled out to allow the faithful people in the South to be massacred.

I think the Great Betrayal was more on Ford's watch than Nixon's.

"I think the Great Betrayal was more on Ford's watch than Nixon's."

Come to remember, that's a good point. Did Nixon's Administration have anything to do with starting the withdrawal? ...can't remember for sure, but his efforts to please the opposition were apparent toward the end of his time in office. I had assumed that it was because some of the protesters (SDS, et al) were going into their parents' corporations to run them and influence government more.
