      <description>&lt;p&gt;Mr. Karnow shows how little our leaders understood about the world by getting into the Vietnam War.  Now we have a another generation of poorly informed elected leaders and their advisors whose poor judgment equals those of the Vietnam era.  Maybe that maximum that people tend to rise to the height of their incompetence in an organizational setting is true. The irony us that our government spend trillions of dollars and apparently  accomplish so little in domestic and foreign affairs.  Political and governmental accountability may no longer be operating in a significant fashion.  Executive branch political fabrication from Vietnam to Iraq has not changed either.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;I was in Vietnam during the Tet Offensive in Qui Nhon province and it was an unforgettable.&lt;/p&gt;
