What is a "cold warrior?" how were both john f. kennedy and richard nixon cold warriors?

A "cold warrior" is a person who was actively involved in the politics of the Cold War era (1950-1992). This era of world history saw the United States and Soviet Union constantly competing for global power. Their two different definitions on how society should run caused significant conflicts between the Soviet Union and the United States.

John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon would be considered "cold warriors" because they were both American presidents who constantly interacted with the Soviet government. Both of them had heated exchanges with Nikita Khrushchev (leader of the Soviet Union) over several different topics. This includes debates over how society is run, technology, and even warfare.
