102. Well, I have a question. Why "Get over Vietnam"?

Why does Clark say to "Get over Vietnam."? I hear he said that the other night. I wondered just how he meant it? I would not think we should forgot such a terrible time in our history. I would think we would learn from it, embrace what we did wrong, remember the 58,000 soldiers who died there, plus the million Vietnamese who died...think my figures are close.

Why did he say that? If we get over Vietnam, it will just be easier to do it again and again.

I found it here, but not a good explanation.
