ken burns documentary is selling lie that ho was a complex man who wanted peace and freedom for his people but had to turn to communists when usa turned him down...
in reality he was a genocidal liar and murderer just like stalin, lenin, and mao...
no wonder the bankers let this piece of human shit take over vietnam...
why do shit stains like gerry support criminals like the dems and republicans ? because they are fools who don't see the controlling banksters behind both parties (and that includes soros owned blm and antifa gerritard)

“To the Vietnamese people he has presented himself as a figure of avuncular benignity, while his political life has been a model of ruthless and militant dedication to the fulfillment of the national and social goals he has set for the Vietnamese Revolution.”
One of Ho’s favorite slogans can still be seen on billboards all over Vietnam today. “Nothing is more precious than independence and freedom.”79 Yet in Ho’s lifetime, he had the power to provide that independence and freedom to the people of North Vietnam and never did.
The people of South Vietnam had independence and freedom within the context of an ongoing war. All the arguments about the corruption, the autocratic nature of the South Vietnamese government or suppression of some press outlets can’t obscure the fact that they had freedom of the press, open elections, opposition parties and open strident political criticism so long as it didn’t promote the Communist version of the truth. North Vietnam had none of that. When the North defeated the South, Ho’s mantra of independence and freedom, a reality in South Vietnam, was swept away in a brutal repression of all opposition to Communist rule.
The key to understanding Ho is presentation versus behavior. A man can appear to be many things, but his actions define who he is. Ho’s actions define him as a dedicated communist who never swerved from his goal. Every move he made, every word he spoke was calculated to further that goal. Millions died because of it.
