Poll: The Cold War

A poll by Ed_Jones_XLIX
In November of this year the German people will celebrate the fall of the Berlin Wall 30 years ago. The "Cold War" was officially dead and the Soviet Union collapsed a scant two years later. The period began shortly after WWII when multimillionaire financier and adviser to president to Harry S. Truman, Bernard Baruch, coined the term “Cold War” to describe the increasingly chilly relations between two of World War Two allies, the United States and the Soviet Union. Shortly after Baruch coined the phrase, Hollywood began cranking out movies on this theme. TV even got in on it too. This Poll has the very best of those titles.
