Romney Doubts Present U S Policy On Vietnam
Romney, now seeking the Republican nomination, shifts from a 1965 view that the war was morally right to calling it a tragic mistake. He argues Americanized fighting harms Vietnam and questions air strikes as a path to talks with Hanoi. He says his current stance is the sole shift and highlights a brainwashed remark by generals and diplomats in 1965. He rejects the domino theory as a justification for large troop commitments.
