Very competent military general, fortunate to serve during relatively peaceful times while Europe and the rest of the world recovered from WWII. As a president, didn't make too many screw-ups. Oversaw the initial stages of the interstate highway system, assuring enough flat, straight sections that commercial aircraft could use it to land on if necessary. Good forethought. Marginal effective income tax rate rose to almost 90% on high wage earners during his tenure.
