That crazy Democrat.

Welcome to the American education system, boys & girls.

She also believes that Afghanistan and Rwanda respect the rights of women.

Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

It's scary that people like her are making the call on important life changing issues.

OH geez haha. America, where North and South Vietnam live peacefully together. Got to love Americans haha. I don't know what's worse, that she is in the Congress or the people that voted her in.

Dude. There are two Vietnam's. Why is everyone freaking out over this?

Agreed.

Everyone, i'd like to introduce to you the old South Vietnam flag....yes its old so if you just knew about it now then you might be missing out on some history.

If that lady in the video was really meant to talk about Korea then yes big fail, but from what i've seen ONLY in that video it seems quite normal to me.

Granted, South Vietnam doesn't exist today but I guess we don't have the full context of the video. There /was/ a South Vietnam that we /did/ fight for.

She talked about how we should feel we "won" the war because we managed to keep South Vietnam free...

I don't understand why you all are criticising her. She is clearly not talking about the koreas. She is focusing on Vietnam including the correct death toll of US soldiers of ~58 thousand. Now, the 2 Vietnams are as one in peace with only some concern for human rights issues. Clearly she knew full well what she was talking about and could probably teach on the subject matter.

I didnt bother with the actual content of what the lady said, but to clarify that she was really talking about Vietnam and not Korea as previous posters had mistaken.
