Dwight David Eisenhower Geneal & 34th president of the United States
-We are going to have peace even if we have to fight for it. (Oxymoron)
- You do not lead by hitting people over the head-that's assault, not leadership. (Seems you need to hit people first, it is war after all)
- Things are more like they are now than they ever were before. (Remember kids Americans vote for these people)
