Don't know if you've ever read the Pentagon Papers from back in the
'70s, but one of the key things that they revealed is that Vietnam was
about to have a free election, and it was obvious that the Communist
candidate was going to win big, so the US disrupted the election and
propped up Diem in South Vietnam.
