I'll assume your intent is sincere and not mendacious, so I will explain.
"This is not a difficult decision to analyze. America promotes capitalism, and it has no territorial designs on Vietnam. The question isn't why Vietnam is making this choice, the question is why it took so long."

Do you even understand what I was talking about in this key sentence at the end of my quote, which the the crux of my argument?
My comment was said in the context of the topic of this too-often-derailed thread, namely the decision of Vietnam to turn towards the US, which the OP was propagandizing against.
Do you now see why I posted that list showing the experience and benefits that have accrued to other countries who have entered the US sphere of influence? And did I explicitly say the US was the key factor in their development, or only factor? Why do you assume I believe that it was the US, and not capitalism, and the culture, history, and circumstances that placed those nations in the US sphere of influence, that were the key factors?
I can't defend the straw man argument that you've erected to knock down, because I never made those simplistic arguments. You can set up further straw men to argue against, but I won't be here to defend those, either, since they are not my arguments. If you want to argue that those who say the US was the key factor in West German/South Korean etc. development were wrong, have at it, but it has nothing to do with me, since I never made those arguments.
