Kennedy started with the evidence, presented reason in communications easily understood by the masses.. He had consistency and veracity.

Big difference.

Hi KLP; Re: "The similarities to the Cuban Missile Crisis are striking..."

I'd say the similarities are with the Bay of Pigs. The concept then was that the Cuban people would never fight to support a dictator like Fidel Castro. Instead, they would rally to our side and with little effort, the US would eliminate Communism from the island.
