Best Answer

Ho Chi Minh wanted to add South Vietnam to North Vietnam. Over a number of years he built a series of roads and underground caves in preparation for his army to fight to conquer South Vietnam. Then the United States sent an army to prevent him from conquering South Vietnam. Eventually, the Americans decided they could not win and had no desire to continue to have solders killed so they left South Vietnam.

Ho Chi Minh never hated America. Instead he wanted South Vietnam and America was in the way.

Who was the president of North Vietnam during Vietnam War?

Ho Chi Minh was really a dictator, not a elected President. He had ruled North Vietnam since 1955, after the defeat of the French at Dien Ben Phu. He was the hero of the Vietnamese people, having been a guerrilla leader against the Japanese in WWII and then again against the French. The Americans had even supported him during WWII! He ultimately defeated the United States and South Vietnam because he and his leadership and the fighters who fought and died for him, believed in total victory, no longer how long it took. We totally underestimated the depth of support the people had for Ho Chi Minh.
