I think that's where you are wrong...........what the voters think is the ultimate test in a democracy.

Democracy means we choose the government. It doesn't mean reality is whatever people vote to declare that it is.


I don't know what you mean by that last statement.

How so? I don't know if you can categorize a theory like cheese.....mild, sharp, extremely sharp. But I am curious as to your perspective.

The extreme versions where along the lines, of "If Vietnam falls then communism will sweep South East Asia, but it won't stop there, it will spread, gaining strength and eventually the US will directly be at risk".

The most mild versions where something like "If we can't stop communism in Vietnam then the countries around Vietnam may also fall to communism."


Then the mild version was too strong.......pretty lame theory in my opinion.
