It wasn't just any old Federal troops sent to Little Rock. It was the 101st Airborne Division. The same guys he said goodbye to on June 5, 1944. Same guys he sent into Bastogne in December 44. It showed he meant business.

No Dwight D. Eisenhower was on the straight & narrow path party. He got attack by the left & right. I read IKE that showed me just how important a president he was & if he didn’t become president Billy Graham & the rest of leaders believed if he didn’t become president are nation would fall. I believe this was true and he was the most important president in history. The other nations were afraid of IKE and he kept peace for 8 years. We have roads because of Ike too

Eisenhower also supported the 1953 coup in Iran which overthrew its' democratic system and imposed the Shah as absolute monarch of the country, and thus planting the seeds for the 1979 Islamic revolution. And that was all because the democratic Iranian government had nationalised the oil fields which used to belong to the British. And this is also one example of how the U.S. has a tendency to get rid of another countrys' government because they either went against American interests, or because they experimented with an economic system that was slightly to the left of Capitalism, and American elites don't want to see any othe system but Capitalism as being successful.

Putting Earl Warren and William Brennan on the Supreme Court knocks Ike’s presidential grade down to a C. When asked whether he had any regrets about his presidency, Ike said two and both were sitting on the Supreme Court. Nothing did more to destroy the US Constitution in the 20th Century than the Warren Court.

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.

And yet, despite all of his accomplishments, during the 1956 Suez Canal crisis, Eisenhower made the same fatal mistake Joe Biden is making now: throwing his allies under the bus to appease a dictator. I'm not talking about Adolf Hitler but Gamal Abdel Nasser, Egypt's president. Instead of fully supporting the UK, France, and Israel, he abandoned them in the hope of encouraging Egypt to join the Western anti-communist bloc when in fact Nasser had all along intended to side with the USSR and was simply playing Eisenhower.

As a Kansas native I am proud that it was Abilene, KS that Eisenhower considered his boyhood home. 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"

So now we are praising this lying murderer? He knowingly covered the attrocities committed by the Bolsheviks and blamed them to the Germans. An adulterer who in the comfort of his home in London during the war was banging his female driver, while young men were being slaughtered at his orders. He intentionally refused to send supplies to General George Patton so he could go and get Berlin before the Bolsheviks did. General George Patton paid with his life in a supposed car accident because he was exposing the truth about the atrocities the Bolsheviks were committing and the Americans were covering. How come no one talks about the 9 million Germans who perished at the hands of the Bolsheviks in the subsequent years following the end of World War II?

Holy hell, George Marshall was the greatest betrayal of America and all freedom loving people in the world. George Marshall we know for a fact that he betrayed Chiang Kai Sekh and allowed Mao to take power in China. George Marshall should be reviled by every single generation. That piece of shit was nothing short of a communist puppet or globalist piece of crap. Whether or not he was a communist he might as well have been, it was because of him that China became a communist country. There are many of the studies that exist now about how far west was lost to the Communists and George c Marshall and his irrational bizarre behavior is in the center of it all.

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.

<<@vernonkuhns3561
says :
Yes, he kept the peace by bending over for our enemies. North Korea is now a nuclear power. He suppressed our best general to do that. Vietnam was proceeding under him and grew to a major conflict. He did not support Israel, another festering sore still around. Hungary became Communist and is currently the weakest against Pooties. Eisenhower also failed on keeping our gubmint free of communists. He suppressed McCarthy. No real investigation of the communist infiltration of our gubmint. You claim McCarthy could not prove his claims. He proved some until Eisenhower took all the records needed for the investigation into the Whitehouse under a NEW executive privilege. We now know McCarthy was right based on extensive intelligence records from the period. Actually our gubmint knew then. Eisenhower was active in allowing the continued subversion of this country by Communists. I am not arguing intent. I am simply stating facts. Yes, Eisenhower warned about both the Military Industrial Complex AND the University Research Complex. Interestingly enough, like a lot of other leaders warning us on their way out, he did NOTHING to stem their growth while he was in office. Why is Prager U pushing such a distorted, whitewashed version of this man??
