aug 6, 1964 - Senator Ernest Gruening, Isolationism
Description:
“(I urge) that the United States get out of South Vietnam...American security is not involved, the allegation that we are supporting freedom in South Vietnam has a hollow sound...I do not consider this our war and I feel that all Vietnam is not worth the life of a single American boy. We inherited this putrid [disgusting] mess from past administrations, and we should make every effort to disengage ourselves.” Isolationism because Gruening states "I urge that the United States get out of South Vietnam", which means stay out of that conflict.
