If memory serves me correctly, Paul Johnson in Modern Times stated the first South American politician to exploit anti-American sentiment and blame all of his country's problems on Uncle Sam was Juan Peron. Now everyone does it, of course, but Peron was the first to recognize such demagoguery paid huge political dividends. Francis seems to have imbibed this with his mother's milk.
