“As my grandfather said of Eisenhower, Great general, mediocre president.”

Don’t take it personal, but your grandfather was wrong on this one - or let’s say half wrong - about the medicore president part.

Ike will never rate as one of the greats but he deserves better than the medicore catagory. If for no other reason than creating the interstate highway system. I will agree that he wasn’t a high profile president who felt a need to be out front in the news every single day. But, you know what? I don’t need nor want this from my POTUS. I give you Mr. Obama as my best example....

Your grandfather was wrong Ike was an excellent president. In my life time only Reagan ranks with Ike.
