President Obama had a few words of praise for long-deceased Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Minh yesterday.
In
otherwise bland remarks made after his first bilateral meeting with
Vietnamese president Truong Tan Sang, President Obama said the meeting
concluded with a discussion of “the fact that Ho Chi Minh was actually
inspired by the U.S. Declaration of Independence and Constitution, and
the words of Thomas Jefferson.”
This is factually true.
President Obama was likely trying to be polite to a visiting head of
state – one who shared with him a letter written by Ho Chi Minh to Harry
Truman in which Minh “talks about his interest in cooperation with the
United States,” according to Obama.
And this President was a Constitutional Scholar? You could have fooled me. Oh wait we are being fooled.
