That being said, I do believe it was winnable.

Fucking pathetic.

It was winnable. Are you doubting the United States possessed the firepower to win the war? We could have easily destroyed its ports and turned Hanoi into another Dresden.

Agreed. Once it was established that we were going to put our troops in harm's way and not just be "advisors" then we should have pulled out all the stops and blown their rice-eating asses to hell. But Johnson was too conflicted by polling results and the whining of the northern state Lib Dems. Since he had lost all of his southern Dem support over the Great Society programs, he had to give into the Libs and so he tried for a "compromise" which did nothing but condemn thousands of young people to death.
