The Role Of Communism In The Cold War

“Communism has never come to power in a country that was disrupted by war or internal corruption, or both.” - John F. Kennedy, July 1963. All of the Cold War Presidents had some ways of dealing with Communism. Truman and also Eisenhower had their same ways of dealing Communism.However Eisenhower was using Military Response, but Kennedy used Flexible Response. Edward Ayers stated in their book, The American Anthem, the Cold War was an time period when the US and the Soviet Union were against each other because of when they had conflicts between each other, but mostly from the Berlin Crisis (819). A Belief that all property and resources are owned by a certain person (Ayers 594). Two of the most superpower nations were struggling with each other

Eisenhower used Military Response, but Kennedy used Flexible Response. They lack of confidence and struggling to stay as freedom and independence and seeing Communism in the long run, but they hate Communism, so they want a easy, final, and also cheap solution now (John F. Kennedy’s University of Washington Speech, on the 16th of November, 1961.). They’re losing confidence, thinking that they’ll become a Communist nation or country since they see Communism in the long run or in the near future, but they hate to be part of Communist so they don’t want that, so they ask use for a easy way to deal with it and a final way to and also cheap so they don’t want to spend too much for it since they aren’t all rich nations or countries. Without the help of us, giving them money and also some help that is easy to get and cheap, because they aren’t rich and hoping that it’s the final solution to end or to stop the spread of Communism either in their place or somewhere else in the World in the Middle East. Sending arms to people that we believe democracy in, but not willing to use those arms (John F. Kennedy’s University of Washington Speech, on the 16th of November, 1961.). We can send people in the Middle East supplies and equipment, but we cannot send troops there to use them, but they there will have to use. Since we don’t want to go to War with the Soviet Union or someone else who’s Communist. Having Powerful weapons that are not as effective that our enemy has as well and we believe not just in our army, but in reason and right (John F. Kennedy’s University of Washington Speech, on the 16th of November, 1961.). Having the most powerful weapon in the world, as well as the Soviet Union has as well, cannot be outmatched so that we’ll only use for right and also in reasons while they will use in not for the rights and won’t have a reason why they used it.
