Ike may have been eastern establishment, but he certainly was a far better executive than history gives him credit for. Far better than any of our recent presidents for sure.

No one ever writes a four volume set about Gerald R. Ford anymore.

Missed the "Caddyshack" reference I guess. Baier was the boob who asked the Dali Lama if he'd seen the movie or played golf.

Disappointed Ike never lived to see Caddyshack.

Our first black president Eisenhower’s mother was mulanto. He is decendant of slaves. (She also had a college degree in engineering)

Awkward? What the hell was Baier thinking? At least the SNL piece was a comedy skit. I was under the impression the interview with the Dali Lama was supposed to be serious.

Thanks Olog-hai. Not a GGG topic, but this may be of interest to the GGG list?

Eisenhower was elected twice to the Presidency in his own right, and completed both terms (note: that's two conditions, so don't write in, okay?). The previous Republican (and at that time, the only one) to achieve that was Ullyses S. Grant [Hiram Ulysses Grant]. The next one was Ronald Reagan. And the fourth and only other was George W. Bush. After Ike, from 1961 to 1981, the US had five Presidents (four and a half, because of Carter being a half-assed prez)
