The Cold War became a dominant influence on many aspects of American society for much of the second half of the 20th century. It escalated due to antagonist values between the United States, representing capitalism and democracy, and the Soviet Union, representing communism and authoritarianism. Being the two dominant world powers after WWII, contention between the Americans and Soviets became a global conflict. The Cold War differed from most wars in that it was as much of a propaganda war as a war with military engagements. The Korean and Vietnam Wars are important examples of military intervention by the Americans in the name of stopping communist expansionism. However, these wars did not have the decades-long impact on American domestic and foreign policy that the cultural, political, and economic battles of the Cold War had.

Some of the similarities between the two revolutions were:

Both revolutions began due to the ideas of Enlightenment.
Many of their objectives were similar: freedom, equality, the end of tyranny, the rule of law, etc.
Both desired a republican, democratic government.
Both inspired many political changes across the world.

However, they were also significantly different:

The United States was fighting against a different country (England), while France engaged in a civil war. This led to deeper divisions within French society.
The United States already had a more egalitarian system, while French social classes were extremely rigid. Therefore, long-lasting change was more difficult to achieve.
The United States was successful in remaining democratic and republican, while France struggled with various regime changes.
The post-war period was relatively peaceful in America, while it was extremely bloody and violent in France.
