The 34th U.S. president to hold office, Dwight D. Eisenhower won America over with his irresistible "I like Ike" slogan. Bringing to the presidency his prestige as a commanding general during World War II, he worked incessantly during his two terms to ease the tensions of the cold war. Pursuing the moderate policies of "Modern Republicanism," he left a legacy of a stronger and more powerful nation.
