Rate the Presidents, Installment #34: Dwight D. Eisenhower

[Unconditional Surrender Truman]

-Withdrew safely from Korea

The groundwork for peace was laid during the last years of the Truman Administration. Eisenhower's role in ending the war was minimal.

As for the OP, three stars. He took some admirable positions as president and was obviously good at the job, while also managing to beat the second term blues. That said, he was hesitant to take action on Civil Rights, and his failure to call out Joe McCarthy (despite being the only man who could have stopped him) was shameful.
