I’ll defer to your judgment on that one. My first political memory is the 1976 election, and my parents are too young to recall the politics of the Eisenhower years, so I am not in a good position to make a judgment of my own.

My own impression is that Ike was undoubtedly a nicer and more virtuous person, while Nixon probably faced more vicious times with less support, which makes them a little difficult to compare—how well would Ike have done in Nixon’s place.
