You didn't mention possibly the most flagrant and disasterous case: Adolph Hitler.

I have no idea what happened with Bao Dai.

Bao Dai's character and track record are well recorded. It is pretty well accepted that the selection of Diem was initiated by the US; I have never seen this questioned in any credible account.

Would you say, regarding the election, that the US has the right, or the responsibility, to obstruct the electoral process of another country if we don't like the actual or probable winner of an election? Do we retain that right to this day? To whom does this apply? If Italy or the Netherlands elected a Communist Government, should we go in and install somebody we like? Or does this right of interference extend only to countries inhabited by people who aren't Europeans?

If another country disapproves of the results of our electoral process, do they have the right to intervene?
