It was pretty high on the issues list in the 1950's so being against communism certainly worked in favor of any candidate seeking public office.
Some Americans were accused of being Communist agents.
Fighting Communism was a good way to get elected
People who grew up in the 1950s were more likely to conform to societal norms and values, as there was a stronger emphasis on tradition and conformity during that time. In contrast, people who grew up in the 1960s were more likely to rebel against traditional norms and embrace countercultural movements such as the civil rights movement and anti-war protests.
it was good it was good
it has nothing to do with communism -- it has everything to do with the civil rights of Americans under the Constitution.

There are aspects of communism that are a good idea. There are portions of it that did not work well.
The U.S fought in the Vietnam war to stop the spread of communism in southeast Asia. Our government believed that if one country fell to communism, that others in the area would fall to communism too. The number of bombs dropped in the vietnam war was more than the bombs dropped in WWI and WWII put together. We were constantly fighting against guerillas in the jungles. The guerillas used an ambush type fighting style which was hard to defend against. We had troops that were trained specially for the ambush fighting style. They were called the green barrets. It was basically an endless battle against the the guerillas. We never knew which people in the south part of Vietnam ( the part we supported ) were good or bad. So basically we we fighting the guerillas in the north and in the south. We ended up then pulled out and we failed.
It was an attempt to assist the French in their recovery from WWII. In retrospect, it probably wasn't a good idea. The French were never grateful and are still as arogant and obnoxious as ever... probably worse.
a new affluence and economic good times
