Who did he run against?
I see in the Question History that several questions (originally asking abeout different people) have been combined into one question. What I am reading above now is "Who did he run against?" so it is not clear who "HE" is. In one original version the reference was to Adlai Stevenson. Stevenson ran against Dwight Green for governor of Illinois, and won. Later, as the Democrat nominee for President of the U.S., Stevenson ran against Dwight D. Eisenhower and lost. Later still, Stevenson ran in the primary to become the Democrat nominee for President, and was defeated by John Kennedy.

He only announced being Republican in 1952, and was not public on this subject for being in the military. Truman's invitation for him to run for President in 1948 indicates he was not Republican at that time.
Did eisenhower run for a third term?
no
Did Dwight D. Eisenhower want to be president?
He was drafted into the presidency. Both parties wanted him to run for them. Once he decided to run, he did the best he could with the job. I think he agreed to do it because he believed he could make a diffference, not because he particularly wanted to be President.
Did Colin Powell run for president?
No, but like Dwight D. Eisenhower he chose the Republican party after leaving the US Army. Powell considered running for President, and although his chances of winning were excelllent, he decided not to run, and he later accepted the office of Secretary of State in the George W. Bush administration
