The US was involved in Vietnam because the Soviet Union was involved in Vietnam. (also because of China and their own desire to spread their charming brand of "peoples revolution" where children get mad at their parents and have their parents executed. Believing they aren't related is absurd. It was already a war between north and south when the French left and before the Soviets/US got involved. It wasn't going to end well for anyone, no matter what.
