Top 10 Presidential Mistakes Ever Made

The Entire Vietnam War

Ask any flower child from the 1960s and 1970s what they believe to be America’s biggest mistake, and you’ll probably hear about the Vietnam War. A rift that is still healing today, America’s misguided attempts to attack Vietnam led to widespread death and devastation. It was Lyndon B. Johnson who both signed off on and approved the order to attack Vietnam.

It was Johnson’s misguided belief that failing to strike out at Vietnam would result in soldiers eventually breaching U.S. soil. He sold the American public on the idea of deployment without having any idea of the scope it would go on to achieve. Often called “Johnson’s War,” a great many American and Vietnamese soldiers were tortured, killed, or otherwise traumatized in the line of duty–all for what some believe, very little result.
