My family came as refugees from Vietnam during/after the Vietnam War. President Ford said the United States had a moral obligation to help the people after the war.

Was the first war where we were getting pretty much live footage and videos so the public got to see the barbaric-ness of war along with fighting a guierrla style enemy so I can see why the public didn't have a great opinion of it. They also didn't have a great opinion of getting hundreds of thousands of refugees but the president did it anyway.

Not just from Vietnam but from Laos and Thailand as well. The US trained foreign people to overthrow and rebel their own communist country.

One thing I do find interesting is the huge approval rating Japan and Vietnam have of the United States (fallen thanks to Trump, but still high) I think next to the Phillipines, Vietnam is 2nd highest for Asian countries

Pretty sure South Korean and Japan are the highest Asian countries if you're thinking about development.

Sort of. My dad was in the Imperial Iranian Air Force when the revolution started happening. He defected to Texas during training exercises. My mom's dad was a communist who was arrested by the Shah's secret police so she was happy to leave as well.

I remember hearing you were on DACA, does it auto renew when you apply due to the court rulings?
