Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States. It was just a year ago you stepped up for vietnam. There seems to be discouragement about the progress. Can you give us your assessment . We are putting in a major effort in vietnam. As you know, we have ten or 11 times as many advisors in there as we had a year ago. So we dont see the end of the tunnel, but i must say i dont think its darker than a year ago, in someways lighter. Early on, kennedy made a command decision, we will not allow South Vietnam to fall to the communists. In Southeast Asia, communists inspired submersion was unrelenting. South vietnam looked to others for stemming vietnamese aggression. Going back to the Eisenhower Administration in the 50s, the country split into south and North Vietnam. You have communists in the north so the United States is very eager to preserve the south from a communist takeover. The communist North Vietnamese believed in nationalism, uniting their country under their own control.
