Earlier I received an email from a gentleman called Bobby Dias. Normally I wouldn't share such a mail but as he has created websites on the same or similar themes, I don't think I'm breaching any confidences.
This is what I received:
In 1969 the President of the United States gave me command of the
Armed Forces of the United States, the main concern was the rampaging
of the Vietcong that would kill about 14 million in south-east asia if
not stopped. I chose to clear out a part of Cambodia, about 200, drive
the Vietcong into a trap there. The bombing was on Vietcong not
Cambodians. The mass pits were filled with Vietcong not Cambodians. I
ask you if there is one or more historians who would want my help in
setting a true record of the year long battle?
Fascinating stuff, I'm sure you will agree but I thought I'd check out who Bobby Dias is. I wish I hadn't started. Mr Dias seems to be some kind of superhero and the friend to everyone, including Pol Pot, Elvis Presley and a 33 year intimate chum of, bizarely, Whitney Houston. It's not for no reason he calls himself Kissing Bobby. He also seems to have been a favourite of several US Presidents, personally called upon to undergo special tasks for them.
He has two main websites. Here is one of his wonderful insights into Cambodian history and anecdotes of the Vietnam war:

One note here about what some have seen: a picture usually titled The Napalm Girl. That was a product of a propaganda photo shoot arranged by President Johnson with me watching at his request. The smoke in the background was from two smoke pots, The children were made up by two professionals for the pictures. Their mothers received a good amount of money and the children received much candy. The smallest child gave me a bite of one of her candy bars. About the way the US used napalm in Vietnam: US sprayer planes sprayed where Vietcong snipers were hiding, followed by flare planes that started the napalm burning- spreading the burning napalm outwards into an area 5-10 times the area that was originally spread- nobody survived the burning and all the napalm burned so there were no injuries from napalm used by the US in Vietnam. All dead.
Starting to meet VERY interesting people:
A person who was said, in the US, to be a terrible man, was loved and respected in southeast Asia- Pol Pot, later called Lon Noi. The difference was that he was not political- his distractors in the US used his name to boost their political status. He had a private army that he used like a volunteer American police force- they were farmers when things were calm. Pol Pot and I got together many times to talk. He was very smart, a degree in law from Cambridge University. That is where he got many ideas on keeping the peace without violence, usually. His usual peaceful ways got him expelled from the rising and violent Kilmer Rouge political party. I remember him saying to me on the phone that he had something important to talk to me about. I went through a mile of jungle to get to his main camp- he had lied to me! Here came at me about 500-600 women yelling kiss kiss kiss- Pol Pot had remembered my Kissing Bobby years while he had attended Cambridge! With more people like Pol Pot this would be a much better world. He started the teaching the children of Cambodia simple hygiene and basic health care.Later, as President of Cambodia he continued the education to all in Cambodia.
One day I was delivering a message to a army officer in the Vietnam jungle when my one army escort soldier pointed to two men talking along side the trail and said that they were the two friendiest people in Vietnam. When they saw me their eyes popped out and BIG smiles showed that they recognized me. They said they remembered me as Kissing Bobby when they had attended Harvard University to get their degrees in law so they could unite Vietnam- they were first cousin,once removed: Nguyen Thieu, President and General of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam(south), and Le Duc Tho, General of the Army of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam(north). They said that they got together whenever they could to plan the government of the to-be Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Considering that this was in 1967 I say that they and myself and Ho Chi Minh planned what to say to Henry Kissenger to fool him(Kissenger) into thinking that he was actually affecting the events in Vietnam.We did such a good job that when Richard Nixon left office he called Kissenger to “rub it in” that he had been fooled badly and completely. Kissenger then called me and said to me: “I will see you dead”- I then called President Gerald Ford to tell him what Kissenger said to me. Ford had me listen on a speaker phone as he fired Henry Kissenger. After that Kissenger continually lied that he was working for the US so he could make money on book sales and personal appearences.
Next- I met Ho Chi Minh on a trail, my escort saying that he was the most important man in southeast Asia- but why did he go a crazy happy when he saw me, him an important man character? He said that he had read hundreds of articles about me being Kissing Bobby and watched all my videos that he could while he he earned his degree in law at Cambridge University. At a point during this conversation he offered to introduce me to the leaders of the 10 Vietcong clans, the 7 peaceful clans first and the 3 trouble making clans last. The thought of that was like David walking into the lion’s den but learning about them may be useful in stopping this thing called the Vietnam War, so I said Yes!. In my US Navy uniform I started to see these people called Vietcong- I seemed safe for me as long as I was not armed. I saw many look at me looking for guns so I did not wear jackets that may seem to hide a gun and I kept my shirt tucked in tight so there would not be a bulge that may seem to hide a gun. I kept rubber bands on my pants’ cuffs so that there would no possibility of a hidden weapon under my baggy US Navy pants legs. That gave me an access to their camps even without Ho Chi Minh, they trusted me to not be a threat. In their camps they slept in the open on bedrolls. They did not have cooking utensils because they considered themselves too important to do such menial tasks- all they ate they paid other than Vietcong to prepare for them every meal. Pretty good IF they have the money but when the region’s biggest employer, Ho Chi Minh, died in 1969, they had to raid and kill to eat- see my story: “306,000 Vietcong Will Die”.
So there you have it. Bobby was with Lynden Johnson when they faked the famous photograph of Napalm Girl (I'm not really sure why, but there you go), he was a good friend of Pol Pot (aka Lon Noi) who was a Cambridge Law Graduate expelled from the Kilmer Rouge Party, but was much loved regardless, and a good friend of Ho Chi Minh, another Cambridge Law student who knew Bobby from his Kissing Bobby videos, which Uncle Ho watched on video while at Cambridge, quite a feat really.
But my favourite are his stories of his friendship with Elvis, on another site:
http://bobbydias.com
To understand how I was able to be around the rich and famous I quote what George
Harrison of the Beatles said about me: "He was, in his time, more loved than Bing
Crosby, Elvis Presley, the Beatles and Michael Jackson all put together". Why and
how: I traveled around California kissing girls. Real kisses not the pretense of their
music. Elvis said to me: "I am jealous of you. You are what I pretend to be". I kissed
many girls at football games in the bigger stadiums, where ABC Television had a
cameraman follow me around during the game during Saturday college games. This
setting had relatives watching the kissing of their daughters and brothers- not in the
back seat of a car. When a girl really got a great kiss and fell into my arms the people
around us stood up and cheered- starting there and going all around the stadium.
Awesome. More awesome was 20-30 minutes before the game started I walked out
onto the field- the people started yelling and cheering and jumping up and down- as
one, all up and all down. No minor rocking of the house- bouncing the whole house.
Whole cities knew when "Bobby is in the house" was announced at a game. About
640 organizations voted me their Entertainer Of The Year- some for 3 or 4 years
straight- 'Teen, 16, Seventeen, Ladies Home Journal, Time, Newsweek, Life, Look,
Playboy(I could not legally buy it!) and many more.. I was on a front page or cover of
over 3000 publications.
So, there was this day that I went to Bing Crosby's house in Palm Springs, California
to help him choose the material to be used for the chairs of the restaurant he was
going to open. When Bing was leading me to the room where the cloth samples were
he stopped at one room and said into the room: "Hey Elvis. Bobby is here. Bobby
Dias. The Kisser". Elvis barely raised his hand and said hi. As we continued to walk
Bing said low to me: "He is lost. Does not know what to do". Later, as I was leaving,
Bing said to Elvis that I was real good with plants and his(Elvis) two new houses had
none. I planted some seeds at Elvis' Palm Springs house that day and we set the date
for his Beverly Hills house.
This is Mr Dias.
Memories of my friend Pol Pot (aka Lon Noi) by Bobby Dias
aka Walter Mitty. aka Forrest Gump. This guys' story makes Batshithead's lies seem believeable.

If you want a laugh, check out his collected tweets: https://twitter.com/bobbydias
I've just skimmed them but have learned that:
- five US presidents considered him the most powerful man on earth, and one said he had as much power and when Hitler and Stalin were in power,
- John McCain wasn't a POW but was in fact in prison in Hanoi for nine murders,
- Sony and RCA owe him billions for stealing his songs made famous by Elvis, Ricky Nelson and Buddy Holly, to name a few
- While not formally employed by the Peace Corps, he actually started it in 1958
- that an 8 year old Obama overheard Bobby trying to scam Obama's father, and that decades later that same scam was introduced as Obamacare.
How long before Trump invites him into his inner circle?
