No, Nagasaki and Hiroshima were the US' way of preemptively calling Russia's bluff and proving we were willing to use nukes if we thought it prudent. Using it on China and Vietnam would've just meant we didn't give a fuck about any foreign nations which would cause untold dissent among other 3rd world allies fighting communism.

I've always thought that the U.S should of ran wild with nukes while they were the only ones with them and air superiority. Nuke all the major population centers of asia, Russia, Africa and the middle east. Don't even bother invading, just drop a bunch of bombs so that there is no population, no infrastructure, no organization, etc. It wouldnt be clean but it would ensure united states dominance for centuries to come.
