    Ike, imo, is perhaps the most UNDERRATED president in American history. I firmly believe that we would have had WWIII back in the 50's if not for IKE. I LIKE IKE

    At 60, I only remember the Reagan years, the 80s was the best. It's been downhill since. Sadly. So ruined and lost now. When I compare America with what I saw in the 80s it's nearly as if those are two different planets. God help America.

      Actually the Democrat were split. Most of the Democrats were liberals. Liberalism believe in government intervention. Democrats like Woodrow Wilson. FDR, and Harry Truman are all liberals because they believe in big government.

    Sounds like 'Ike' wasn't swayed by the war profiteers. Good for him. He already saw the worst war and didn't want us in another one. Being a general, he also knew how to read people and their capabilities.

    Nobody knows that.Tofu was a true conservative. A conservative oh my goodness, he was acting like Ronald Reagan and orange men and you telling me he wasn't a conservative Is l o l . Also.
    You need to understand other things that he did force that were just as important You probably think.
    That he had the highway system across the united states built for commerce. That system was built to support the military. You look.
    How these highways go they weren't built to go to all the great industrial centers. They were built to move.
    Food and materials from the East Coast to the West Coast from the North border to the South border. Yeah because it carried a big stick

      ' indicates ya got no facts pal - - - Eisenhower adopted a get-tough policy toward the communists in Korea. He suggested that he would “unleash” the Nationalist Chinese forces on Taiwan against communist China, and he sent only slightly veiled messages that he would use any force necessary (including the use of nuclear weapons) to bring the war to an end unless peace negotiations began to move forward. The Chinese, exhausted by more than two years of war, finally agreed to terms and an armistice was signed on July 27, 1953.

    To the non-veterans who want to bash IKE for being too passive try to attempt to put yourselves in his shoes or veterans who saw friends they had just spoken to just minutes-hours before thier death in combat. Or rows or piles of dead bodies. Just a small glimpse of Sherman's words, "War is HELL"

    Desegregation and building roads were probably the only good things Ike did. Now I understand why my mom did not like Ike. To me you make him sound like a commy simp. Joe McCarthy was a great American. He was trying to root out communists that were in the government and entertainment. Mr. Prager, how can you allow such trash on your site?
