Betty Mack:

Nixon’s mistake was to conduct a fighting retreat rather than instantly withdrawing and letting S. Vietnam collapse. Ironically, Obama may have to do the same thing in Southwest Asia. He may even have to widen the war for a time, as Nixon did. But all this demonizing of Nixon is totally irrational, as there is no arguing with it.
