Johnson critiques Kennedy Vietnam policy in memoirs

In excerpts from The Vantage Point, Lyndon B. Johnson says 1963 Vietnam policy suffered from wishful thinking among observers and too much reliance on Vietnamese statistics. He criticizes a State Department ultimatum to Diem as a serious blunder that hastened Diem’s downfall and Saigon political confusion. Johnson recalls taking office to pursue Kennedy goals and learning the situation was graver than initial reports indicated. McNamara’s gloomy Saigon appraisal and the Joint Chiefs’ calls for early action are noted, with Johnson and advisers later rejecting those measures.
