Fox News host and chief political anchor Bret Baier is working on a book about the waning days of Dwight Eisenhower’s presidency and the beginning of John F. Kennedy’s administration.

William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, told The Associated Press on Monday that Baier’s “Three Days in January: Dwight Eisenhower’s Final Mission” would come out in January, around the time the successor to President Barack Obama will be sworn in. …

Ike was the last American president. From Kennedy onward they have all been open border, de facto multiculturalists.

Isn't that the truth.

Right now I am on volume two of James MacGregor Burn’s bio of Franklin Roosevelt. I realized in all my reading I had never read a comprehensive bio of him and I had to research around to find one I thought was really good.

Volume two, the war years, was what I was most interested in and it has been fascinating to read. I probably now have a higher opinion of FDR than before. I don't know how any one man could have shouldered such a burden during any war, but especially W.W. II. It truly killed him health wise.

Eisenhower also had a terrible burden in comparison with his being Supreme Commander in Europe. He literally lived on a diet 3 to 4 packs of cigarette's and coffee. Similarly to Roosevelt.

Patton liked Ike fine. In fact before Marshall picked him to move up, Ike had talked to Patton about serving under him at the Corps level.

I have a good bio on Eisenhower that I have’ tread yet. It is by Carlo D’este that is supposed to be very good. Maybe some answers in there.

Ike was not all that bad, but one of the PC elite after all...besides Georgie Patton and Chesty Puller were distant cousins...

I actually met Eisenhower. He looked very, very white to me.

Eisenhower patted my arm when 8 was a kid.
Check out the pictures of his mother , she passed for white too !
Her negroid mother died when she was young. She first lived with her grandparents who had been slaves , but they wanted her to drop out of school. She went to live with father’s family (Caucasian ) who sent her to college. She met Ike’s father in college

Bret Baier is a coward and a fraud. Just another one of Ruppert Murdoch’s little toads. A sock puppet for the Washington D.C. elitist traitors.

Researched it last winter. UNder the weather now but it’s out there. I used BING
A couple of great articles. Also discussed how for years her mother’s family tree stopped with her mother (she was 4-5 when she died). She lived with her share cropper grandparents in Virginia till about 15 when she “ran away” to Kansas

Color of skin has little to do with heredity. Jefferson’s wife had dark eyes, hair and olive skin. Her cousin who Thomas loved but was not able to marry in VA because she technically had negroid blood was a green eyed red head with freckles.
One can understand why ancestoral records were sometimes lost when one could “pass for white”.
