Ho Chi Minh, born on May 19, 1890 as Nguyen Tat Thanh, was a Vietnamese revolutionary and communist dictator who imposed socialist authoritarian rule on North Vietnam, dashing any hopes of it becoming a democratic country. He was prime minister of the Viet Minh, a Communist proto-state, from 1945 to 1955. The Viet Minh became the government of North Vietnam in 1954. Ho became president in 1955 and held this position until death on September 2, 1969. Ho was more a figurehead than a leader. Although Le Duan, the party boss, maintained a lower profile, he was a more powerful leader. "Ho" is a surname while "Chi Minh" means "the one who brings light." Vietnamese generally call him Bác Hồ (Uncle Ho). This phrase was coined in imitation of "Uncle Joe," one of Stalin's nicknames. Official propaganda stresses that Ho was celibate and dedicated only to welfare of the nation. Few Vietnamese are aware that he was married to Tang Tuyet Minh, a Chinese Catholic who lived in Guangzhou. After the Vietnam War ended in 1975, Saigon was renamed Ho Chi Minh City.

## Life and career[edit]

Nguyen Tat Thanh left Vietnam at the age of 20. He traveled to London, New York and Paris and took different jobs (among others: worked as a ship steward, gardener, cook in a restaurant). While working on a ship he used name Nguyen Van Ba, then he returned to his original name.

In 1919 he joined the French Socialist Party and in 1920, after the party fell apart, he become a member of the French Communist Party. He became an expert in colonialism issues. In 1922 he was delegated to Moscow, where he studied the doctrine and techniques of Communism. In 1925 he was sent to China, officially as a staff member of the Soviet Consulate in Canton, in fact as a Comintern agent. Then he became the Director of the Comintern Office in Shanghai. Since then, until the start of the Second World War he traveled a lot over Asia.

* Ho throughout his life was a dedicated Communist internationalist. In 1938 Ho went from Moscow to Moa's side at Yenan.[2][3]
* Ho Chi Minh was a nationalist in the sense that he had a special affection for Vietnam's people and favored Vietnamese unification and independence, but, from his reading of Lenin’s Theses onward, he firmly adhered to the Leninist principle that Communist nations should subordinate their interests to those of the international Communist movement.[4]
* Because of Ho Chi Minh drafting a Declaration of Independence that specifically referenced the American revolution, liberals (including most infamously Barack Obama) thought Ho Chi Minh was inspired by Thomas Jefferson, even though many stuff in Minh's declaration had stark differences from Jefferson's ideas (namely, placing more emphasis on the nation than on individual men), as well as faking admiration specifically to trick Americans into supporting his cause,[5] falling in line with the Communist use of deceit to fool the public into believing the opposite of the Communists' true intentions.

Unofficial estimates of those killed by Ho Chi Minh’s Vietnam Labor Party, which later become the Vietnamese Communist Party, range from 200,000 to 900,000. ...“The land reform campaign was a crime of genocide like that of Pol Pot,” Hao said."
