But I believe this: by and large, the United States ought to be able to choose for its President anybody that it wants, regardless of the number of terms he has served. That is what I believe. Now, some people have said, "You let him get enough power and this will lead toward a one-party government." That, I don't believe. I have got the utmost faith in the long-term common sense of the American people. Therefore, I don't think there should be any inhibitions other than those that were in the 35-year age limit and so on. I think that was enough, myself.
Dwight D. EisenhowerYour task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well-trained, well-equipped and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely
Dwight D. EisenhowerOne small ball in the air. I wouldn't believe that at this moment you have to fear the intelligence aspects of this.
Dwight D. EisenhowerGuns and tanks and planes are nothing unless there is a solid spirit, a solid heart, and great productiveness behind it.
Dwight D. EisenhowerShould any political party attempt to abolish social security unemployment insurance and eliminate labor laws and farm programs you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group of course that believes you can do these things. Among them are a few other Texas oil millionaires and an occasional politician or business man from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid.
