Eisenhower did more for civil rights then Kennedy or Johnson.

While I do agree, I suspect that had you been alive at the time you'd be whining about his sending of federal troops to Arkansas to block Orval Faubus was wrong and a violation of states' rights.

Come on people! Wilson saw to it that the Espionage and Sedition Acts were passed--they make the Patriot Act look good. He also endorsed the ultra-racist movie "Birth of a Nation" and called it historically accurate.

The Espionage and Sedition acts were good ideas. I liked them. Also, "Birth of a Nation" was a landmark movie and set in course the development for ALL modern movies. Certainly one of the greatest movies in all of cinematic history.

why were they good ideas? I suspect you wouldn't be too fond of them if Lincoln implemented them.
