...Castro. Any muscle flexing by the U.S. inevitably recalls to Mexicans the days when the U.S. sent troops into Mexico and U.S. ships bombarded Veracruz. But now the Communist invasion of the Caribbean was a clear and present danger-to Mexicans as well as Americans. Mexico's President Adolfo Lopez Mateos got advance notification of Kennedy's speech while he was in Manila on his way back from an Asian tour. He put Mexico decisively on the U.S. side.
