Ho Chi Minh was really a dictator, not a elected President. He had ruled North Vietnam since 1955, after the defeat of the French at Dien Ben Phu. He was the hero of the Vietnamese people, having been a guerrilla leader against the Japanese in WWII and then again against the French. The Americans had even supported him during WWII! He ultimately defeated the United States and South Vietnam because he and his leadership and the fighters who fought and died for him, believed in total victory, no longer how long it took. We totally underestimated the depth of support the people had for Ho Chi Minh.

Did President Nixon promised over 3 billion in economic aid to North Vietnam after the war?
Well, for one thing, North Vietnam no longer existed after the war. There was only "a Vietnam." Secondly, the former "North" Vietnam was the victor during the war...and the victor seldom needs economic aid. And third, the victor was a communist enemy during the cold war...the Commander in Chief, President Nixon, in all probability wouldn't have aided and abetted the enemy.
