Re: Best US President
[ QUOTE ]
Maybe this guy: He described the Cold War saying: "We face a hostile ideology global in scope, atheistic in character, ruthless in purpose and insidious in method..." and warned about what he saw as unjustified government spending proposals and continued with a warning that "we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex... Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together." On second thought, maybe he was a failure also, since he failed to get the masses to pay attention. [/ QUOTE ] I like Ike too (if I'm correctly attributing this), possibly the best post WWII pres. But he did overthrow a bunch of foreign elected officials in sketchy manner. |
