        Both Eisenhower and Obama did not want to see loss of life. These photos show their humanity.

        A warrior turned statesman who knew firsthand the horrors of war and fascism. Would he even recognize what’s become of the presidency??

        Look at the GOP platform of 1952....it was for unions, social security, education & more...Ike ran not to win POTUS, but to stop GOP candidates from taking those things away

        The GOP platform of 1952 looks like Bernie Sanders’ platform of 2016. Seriously.

        “Seeing Nazi crimes committed at Ohrdruf camp made a powerful impact on Eisenhower, &he wanted the world to know what happened in the concentration camps..to give first-hand evidence..if in the future,there develops a tendency to charge these allegations merely to ‘propaganda.’”

        He brought in soldiers from all over Germany to see, and he made the locals clean it up.

        Does seem a lil odd there is a SS agent already with the group. He's the one that pops in front of the camera at the end.
