Dwight D. Eisenhower

Dwight D. Eisenhower

Dwight D. Eisenhower
Through knowledge and understanding we will drive from the temple of freedom all who seek to establish over us thought control - whether they be agents of a foreign power or demagogues thirsty for personal power and public notice.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Beware the military-industrial complex.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
