How did President Eisenhower try to reassure the American people with respect to nuclear fears?
What was his vision for America?


Sagot :

Eisenhower said that Americans did not have to be

hysterical, that they could be vigilant. Americans

could stand up and hold up their heads and say

“America is the greatest force that God has allowed

to exist on his footstool.”

He said it was up to America to lead the world to a

peaceful and secure existence.

Eisenhower felt that the advances of science had

outraced the country’s social consciousness, and that

Americans had developed more scientifically than

they were capable of handling emotionally and

intellectually.
