		<description><![CDATA[1968?  In those days America was 10 years in front of Europe and we were considered &#039;quite quaint&#039; in our old-fashioned ways - tea shops and no debit cards, let alone credit cards.  We were horrified when the BBC did a programme on the American credit system.  It opened with a six-tier plastic folder dropping down.  At that time we just didn&#039;t do that sort of thing.  You were &#039;no better than you aught to be&#039; if you bought something on tick. Mortgages and,  later on the car, were the only socially acceptable forays into the banking system.T

The media would applaud the &#039;swinging sixties&#039; and Americans would go YEAH, whilst the English -- who were actually &#039;there&#039; --  would go, yeah.  They had no money and life was hard for young people.  Hippies came late to Britain.  I&#039;d put them in the 70&#039;s and very much restricted to Art Colleges.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[More than 50,000 Americans never got out of Vietnam alive, and tens of thousands more who did get out remain totally or partially disabled even to this day.  We never should have gotten involved in that regional civil war in the first place, and it is my guess that Barry Goldwater would have gotten us out of there immediately after his election in 1964.  Unfortunately, Goldwater didn&#039;t win that election, and the rest is history.  My point about the nuclear weapons is that in the event the U.S. was trying to withdraw from Vietnam but N. Vietnam (a) would not permit us to withdraw peacefully; and/or (b) would not account for and turn over every single American POW in their custody, I feel quite confident that Barry Goldwater would have readily blown the N. Vietnamese strongholds of Hanoi and Haiphong completely off the map using whatever force was necessary, and that would have been the right thing to do under those circumstances.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Although Goldwater discussed the possibility of using low-yield nuclear 
weapons to defoliate infiltration routes in Vietnam, he never actually 
advocated the use of nuclear weapons&quot;


Thank goodness for that.  



Vietnam is but a long thin strip of coastal land.  from north to south it is a graveyard interrupted by very tall thin apartment blocks.  



Whilst I understand your concern for your innocent soldiers sent to fight jungle warfare with an enemy that was not theirs in an environment they would never cope with.  Once they did finally get out of there, their troubles were over.  To this day Vietnamese are still paying the price with their lives and limbs.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We never invaded N Vietnam. It was strictly an air war. The troops in S Vietnam were there at the invitation of the government, however corrupt and repressive it may have been. 
Using the same logic, perhaps we should not have intervened in Germany during WW II.
I don&#039;t think direct military intervention was the wisest choice, but at least I have my facts straight (though perhaps grossly oversimplified)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BL:  &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;I see you would happily nuke innocent people that never did you any harm.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;


On the contrary.  I never saw any reason for us being in Vietnam in the first place.  Obviously our national security was not at risk and the South Vietnamese regime we were defending could not possibly have been more corrupt.  My point is that Barry Goldwater would have ended the conflict quickly, one way or another.  Either the U.S. would have be allowed to withdraw peacefully with all of our POWs or the North Vietnamese Communist Regime would have been utterly and totally destroyed immediately.  There is no question that North Vietnam was the aggressor in that conflict, and if they were not willing to allow us to withdraw with all of our men, they would have deserved everything we could have thrown at them.  Unfortunately, those kinds of choices were not presented to the North Vietnamese, and our soldiers were kept pinned down in a jungle war they weren&#039;t allowed to win and weren&#039;t allowed to abandon.  There has never been a greater injustice to American fighting men in the entire history of the United States, and yes, the welfare of American soldiers and the American people is always my first concern.]]></description>
