Depends on the conservative, but McCain, Dole -- those guys are American legends and deserve respect regardless of their politics.

- Teever 5y agohow do you think Vietnamese people should feel about McCain and Dole?
- jannie123 5y agoFor McCain they view him fairly well (https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2018/08/27/how-vietnam-has-reacted-death-john-mccain/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2018/08/27/how-vietnam-...) and idk for Dole but I'd be surprised if they knew him (he didn't fight in vietnam btw if that's what your implying)
- hereforphone 5y agoSee what I mean about Reddit-like?
- _moof 5y agoDole fought in World War II.
- Teever 5y agoYou're right I missed that, but I think it makes my point better. I was replying to a comment that said "Those guys are American legends and deserve respect regardless of their politics." I dispute that. I'm not American. These guys may be American legends but that doesn't mean that they deserve my respect. There are a lot of legitimate gripes that people around the world can have about someone like McCain and Dole and they don't implicitly deserve respect because they're dead.
- shmoe 5y agoIf you read the article below, it would seem there was fairly good sentiment from Vietnam as well when McCain passed.
