Ike was okay - he was good at the time. I think the [horrid] morals of politicians are staying equal to those of the world we live in.

Dwight David "Ike" Eisenhower (October 14, 1890 – March 28, 1969) was an American soldier and politician. During World War II, he served as Supreme Commander of the Allied forces in Europe, with responsibility for planning and supervising the successful invasion of France and Germany in 1944-45. In 1949 he became the first supreme commander of NATO. As a Republican, he was elected the 34th President of the United States (1953–1961). As president he ended the Korean War, kept up the pressure on the Soviet Union during the Cold War, reoriented the defense budget toward nuclear weapons, launched the space race, enlarged the Social Security program, and began building the interstate highway system.
Throughout his presidency, Eisenhower preached a doctrine of Dynamic Conservatism. Although he maintained a conservative economic policy, he continued all the major New Deal programs still in operation, especially Social Security. He expanded its programs and rolled them into a new cabinet level agency, the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, while extending benefits to an additional 10 million more workers. His cabinet, consisting of several corporate executives and one labor leader, was dubbed by one journalist, "Eight millionaires and a plumber." Eisenhower was extremely popular, winning his second term with 457 of the 530 votes in the Electoral College, and 57.6% of the popular vote.
In recent surveys of historians, Eisenhower often is ranked in the top 10 among all U.S. Presidents

Moral or morale?
The morale is certainly rising with the Dems back in charge of the Congress, but morals are a bit more slippery to grasp.
As to Ike as President, I call him a tweeny president. He wasn't all that good (McCarthyism), but he wasn;t all that bad (Little Rock). Right in the middle

replace "is" with "are"
and drop the "e" in morale, it should say "moral"
Yes, the moral values are dropping
