I am a long time collector of baseball memorabilia, and it has become more than a hobby but an obsession. I owned, and operated a Baseball Card hobby shop in the 1980's through the 1990's. Afterwards I started selling on eBay but not for profit but to support my enormous memorabilia habit.

What did Dwight Eisenhower do as president?

He signed the federal aid-highway act. Major Domestic Policy: While in office, Eisenhowercontinued the programs of the New Deal and the Fair Deal. HisPresidency was filled w…ith the conflict of desegregation and thechange in the treatment of African Americans. Once the SupremeCourt case Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka came up in 1954,segregated schools were now integrated, allowing for both blacksand whites to attend the same public schools. Then in 1957, thefirst satellite made by man named Sputnik, was launched into orbitby the Soviet Union before the United States. The Soviets also beatthe United States in sending animals into orbit, taking pictures ofthe moon, putting satellites in the moons orbit, and then the firstto send man to space. Resulting from this, 6 months later, theUnited States then acted quickly to send the satellite, Explorerone, into orbit. The United States still did not feel equal to theSoviet Union until Neil Armstrong was stepped on the moon. Major Foreign Policy: Eisenhower's presidencyconsisted mostly of the push for world peace. One fear was theeffects of the Domino Theory, which was when one country would fallunder the leadership of Communism, and then the surroundingcountries would also fall under Communist leadership, leading tothe entire continent of Asia being Communist. Once Dienbienphu, whowas the French fortress, lost control to the Vietnamese communist,the United States knew they had to meddle. In Geneva, a conferencewas set up resulting from the short war, which split Korea on the17th line. Now both Korea and Vietnam were split in order toprevent the spread of Communism. Also, the creation of theSoutheast Asia Treaty Organization in 1954 was enacted in order tofurther restrict Communism. This treaty stated that nations would"meet in order to agree on the measures which should be taken forcommon defense" in cause of violence. After the Vietnam War, thetreaty would be interrupted and be last used in 1976. The majorissue during Eisenhower's presidency was the Suez Crisis. After theInternational Bank and countries such as Great Britain and theUnited States stopped donating money towards the creation of thecanal in Egypt, Nasser, who was the leader of Egypt, publicly ownedthe Suez Canal but refused to allowed British contact with theCanal. This resulted in a war on Israel as they declared their ownwar and proceeded as far into the Suez Canal as they could.Conflict rose as the French, Russians and the British all wanted toimpede. The conflicts were hampered when the United Nations tookover the issues and cleaned the canal. In order to fade the ColdWar between the United States and the USSR, a conference was setup, but failed because of the fact that two weeks before the eventthe U2 American spy plane was shot down over the Soviet land whentaking spy pictures. Eisenhower denied that there were spy planesuntil the Soviet government released a video of the crash and theplane with the pilot himself. Eisenhower could not deny the truthanymore and the Cold War continued. Major Supreme Court Decisions: â¢ Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka (1954)-Held thatschool segregation was unconstitutional under the Equal ProtectionClause of the Fourteenth Amendment due to the fact that segregatedareas are not equal. â¢ Watkins v. United States (1957)-Held that Watkinsconviction was unconstitutional because of the fact that he did notreceive fair process on whether he would choose to refuse to answerquestions while as a witness. â¢ Yates v. United States (1957)-Held that for the SmithAct to be unconstitutional people would have to be persuaded intodo something, other then to believe in something. Intellectual and Social Development: â¢ The Korean War came to an end in 1953 as the United States wasleading in Military and diplomatic affairs. â¢ Eisenhower's modern Republicanism came about as both Democratsand Republicans intervened with the economy. â¢ The Warren Court made dramatic changes to the judicial power asthey brought about change. â¢ There was a growth in consumer culture and military-industrialcomplex, causing the United States to reach its peak of success ofAmerican capitalism. â¢ The Montgomery bus boycott occurred in 1955 as people such asAfrican Americans, and women, Latinos and other groups foughttowards civil rights. â¢ The 1950's consisted of a baby boom as family sizes increased andwere purchasing more electronics for their homes and an increase insuburbia was seen. Eisenhower's Legacy: Eisenhower's presidency haschanged since the time of his term in office. People remembered forhis frequent camping and fishing trips, wondering if he was leavingall of the work to his White House assistants. Eisenhower also wasknown for not fully answering the questions of the public since hehad no clear ideas about how he was planning to deal with theissues. Eisenhower is now known as a president who had thoughtfulviews about the major issues, and always discussed these issueswith his cabinet. He use to be known as the "do-nothing" President,but this has changed since he had the responsibility of dealingwith the Korean War just six months after his beginning term inoffice. He will always be remembered for his decisions to incitethe economy and his support to build the Interstate Highway System.He was always known for handling the tensions of the United Stateswhen Sputnik was launched on October 4, 1957.
