Um, no, it is not "discussed a lot." You haven't been here in a long time, I
can tell.
Vietnam was discussed a lot in 2004 when there was a presidential
candidate who was awarded 3 purple hearts in 4 months and wouldn't
release his medical records.
But as for the 1.5 to 2 million that were murdered by the Communists
after the Americans left? This is virtually never mentioned.
