Eisenhower was certainly one of the better presidents on foreign policy issues during the Cold War - his "New Look" calmed down tensions with the Soviet Union significantly and made the 1950s not the decade of the Third World War.

Eisenhower should get credit for his handling of the Suez Crisis, avoiding dangerous chain of events that could very well have lead to WWIII.
