Senator John F. Kennedy wrote:
Vietnam is the cornerstone of the Free World in Southeast Asia. If the red tide of communism overflowed into Vietnam, then Burma, Thailand, India, Japan, the Philippines and obviously Laos and Cambodia would be threatened.
The independence of Vietnam is crucial to the Free World. Vietnam’s economy is essential to the economy of all Southeast Asia. Vietnam’s political liberty is an inspiration in all parts of Asia.
