And I choose to respond. 1) Objecting is futile. These cyberbytes are free to any and all. Thread protocol be damned. When in the course of human events...blah blah blah, four score and something...fast forwarding, the ruthless shall inherit the most disk space. 2) Yeah, glad you asked. Was gonna offer one anyone. Trying to argue what Ho might have done seems pointless. I'd say look at any other petty dictator that the US has helped to establish. Castro was one fr'instance. There must be dozens of others. I'm with Fred though, Ho would have steered a single party controlled by mobsters who took direction from one man who called himself a communist leader. In the vacuum of his demise, a coalition would arise among the more ruthless of the ruthless. Turns would then be taken ala post-Mao and post-Stalin. With or without American aid or complicity. 3) The She-Devil lurks. Good thing we have the mule called Sal to distract her.

My $.02 1) Goodness no. Y'all are excellent infotainment. 2) If you don't mind one based on pristine ignorance! 3) Rambi respects a good debate. Having a strong opinion is entirely SOP. It doesn't even need to be unambiguously right! The only time you risk the Wrath is if you get nasty (or puke on the strings of the mirror-perfect concert grand in the corner)! Mighty gracious of you to ask. Be reassured. Weapons free!
