I fully agree that US support for Uncle Ho would have had very positive effects in Asia but there is also Europe to consider. If the USA pisses the French in the face they would never ever get French support for that thing they were planning in Europe: NATO!

Since the cold war got hot first in Europe and since France was the biggest power in western europe they had to be in to make it work. So you would have to come up with a POD that makes the USA support the Vietnamese and the French to agree, well go along. Not easy/likely but I can think of something.
