Answer 1

To become a legitimate political party in South Vietnam to withdraw its troops from south Vietnam

Answer 2

“For the future of peace, precipitate withdrawal would thus be a disaster of immense magnitude.  

—A nation cannot remain great if it betrays its allied and lets down its friends.  

—Our defeat and humiliation in South Vietnam without question would promote recklessness in the councils of those great powers who have not yet abandoned their goals of world conquest.  

—This would spark violence wherever our commitments help maintain the peace—in the Middle East, in Berlin, eventually even in the Western Hemisphere . . .  

For these reasons, I rejected the recommendation that I should end the war by immediately withdrawing all of our forces.”  

                   —President Richard Nixon
