	Dwight David Eisenhower
		Eisenhower’s action was criticized at the time by the governor of Texas for taking a military action that was “undemocratic.” When Senator John F. Kennedy was asked about it his response was rambling, inarticulate and squishy.
		Eisenhower was supposedly oblivious to the liberal opinions of his other judicial appointees; desegregated Washington, D. in a senile daze; had no commitment to the United Nations Charter and its human rights provisions; had the wool pulled over his eyes by two Attorneys General over the course of eight years.
		The reasons why Eisenhower is not credited with his Administration’s civil rights accomplishments are twofold: Present-day Republicans are embarrassed by, and hostile to, the “judicial activism” of the Warren Court, as well as the executive activism of Eisenhower’s Attorneys General.
