It is interesting how the press reports on Obama. If this snippet from the article is correct, Obama is the third president to visit VN in the last 20 years. In the last 20 years, there have been 3 presidents. Therefore, all three must have visited VN. So what makes this a "historic" visit?
Here is one article I found:
Clinton Makes Historic Visit to Vietnam - ABC News
Here's another:
PRESIDENT BUSH VISITS VIETNAM | Embassy of the Socialist ...
Now, someone please tell me why only when a democrat visits VN it is "historic."
If nothing else maybe selling shoes is something Obama can be good at. He has been practicing selling shoes for a long time. I would think that Americans could make shoes.
From the linked article:
President Obama is the third U.S. President to visit Vietnam since the normalization of relations just over 20 years ago. Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes outlines what's on deck for this historic visit. Credit: The White House/YouTube
