Well, it works pretty well in Britain, as I understand it, and you know how the conservatives in America can see Europeans a bit like how Reagan saw trees:  Seen one, seen'em all.

Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.

Yes, there is a difference between France and Britain on this (perhaps even more so 40 years ago).

But the use of Vietnam in Romney's story is above all self-serving, since it shows him being rejected as an American (European anti-Americanism, anyone?), not just because he was a drooling missionary idiot who was pissing people off.
