I never heard anything remotely bad about Eisenhower. Suggs, I see me and you arguing a lot in the future. In this topic and Creationism topic.
Eisenhower was kind of just mediocre...if I had to pick a worst president I'd go with Hoover. He just made so many bad decisions.

I've heard Hoover was actually a really good president, why do you think he did badly?

You remember the great depression? All those families starving in the dustbowl? Well, Hoover got rid of the dust. He turned it into a normal bowl. and filled it with fruit for everyone to eat. And that is celebrated every year on Superbowl Sunday.

Hoover didn't cause the depression, it's just another instance of everyone blaming the president for the problems the nation was facing.
I will admit that his ideas to bring the depression to an end weren't very good, but he didn't start it so there's no reason to blame him for it.
