President John Fitzgerald Kennedy


          John F Kennedy was the most effective president throughout the entire Cold War. John F. Kennedy was not only a president he was also a war hero for the reason that the was a  involved in World War II. This gave him insight and understanding of what actually war was like. He got injured during his time in the war: however, this did not stop him form his aspersions. Once he had come back form the injury he went to school for law; however, he then realized that he wanted to become the president of the United States. He would then stop at nothing to become president due to the fact he felt that he would help progress and save America. He prevented a nuclear war during the Cuban Missile Crisis and forced the Soviet Union to withdraw its nuclear missiles from Cuba. President John F. Kennedy was effective for the reason that he had stopped a nuclear war that was engendering in Cuba because of the missiles that the U.S.S.R. had placed in Cuba. This war was going to turn into World War III; however, President John F. Kennedy had resolved the problem. This is the reason why President John F. Kennedy was most effective. 


           Even if President John F. Kennedy was influential he did not agree with some presidents before him such as President Eisenhower. He did not agree with President Eisenhower's plan which was to free Cuba from Castro and by freeing Cuba of Castro, freeing the entire Western Hemisphere of communism that the CIA had engendered. He felt that it would start a war yet he did not stop the processes of the plan due to the fact that it was too late. President John F. Kennedy also did not agree with President Nixon when he was befriending the Soviet Union. His plan was to end communism with the help of the Soviet Union's friendship. However, President John F. Kennedy did not agree with this because it would make the United States weak. Also he did not agree for the reason that it was not good for the nation neither was Presidents Eisenhower plan.
