Kennedy and the Cold War For today, you need a book and a writing utensil Brainstorm the tools that Eisenhower and Truman used to contain the spread of communism. What did the two presidents do the same? What was different? Using page 847 fill in the graphic organizer on your paper.

Kennedy and the Cold War 1.Reducing the threat of nuclear war and stopping the spread of communism ▫Flexible response: Kennedy thought Eisenhower had relied too heavily on nuclear weapons. He wanted to increase the number of troops and buildup conventional weapons. This would allow the country to fight limited style warfare. ▫Aid to other countries: Under Kennedy’s administration this focused mainly on Latin America. This policy was based on the theory that communist revolutions were more likely to occur in countries with poor economies. Money went to establish better schools, housing, and health care. ▫Peace Corps: young Americans would volunteer to do humanitarian work in less developed countries to help fight poverty.

Fidel Castro overthrew the government of Cuba in Castro’s government seized American owned businesses and land. He also established ties with the Soviet Union. The CIA secretly trained and armed Cuban exiles to invade in the hopes that it would spark a popular uprising. The invasion was a disaster and Kennedy canceled the planned air support to keep Americas involvement a secret. Within two days, almost all 1,400 of the Cuban exiles were killed or captured. The popular uprising against Castro never occurred and the plot made the United States look weak and disorganized.

Wanting to stop the flow of people from communist East Germany into West Berlin Khrushchev demanded that the city of Berlin (which was completely inside East Germany) be given to East Germany. Kennedy refused. In response, a wall, with armed guards posted along it, was built to separate West Berlin from the East.
