“Eisenhower”

Possibly. That’s what I was thinking.

No, the left hated Eisenhower, ridiculing him endlessly for his middlebrow tastes. Stevenson was heralded as an intellectual by the left, but the fact is that Stevenson rarely read any books, while the West Point graduate Eisenhower was well versed in both classical and modern literature.
