The French were fighting in Vietnam in 1950 not the US.
we didn't lose Vietnam. We simply left when President Nixon went into office. We trained the south Vietnam people to fend for themselves and slowly took troops out, then when the two Vietnam's called a peace treaty for the new year celebration Tet north Vietnam issued several attacks on South Vietnam. So the side we were helping lost but truthfully we did not lose.
In a phrase: The Vietnam War. America was becoming more and more ambivalent about Vietnam, seeing it as an "un-winnable" war, and then Walter Cronkite did a special report on it from Vietnam. Cronkite's conclusion was pretty much that it was essentially a dead heat that was going nowhere, and Cronkite was known at that time as "The most trusted man in America". After watching the report, Johnson said: "If I've lost Cronkite, I've lost America".
