1 star.  His economic policy was atrocious, and it nearly landed the country into another Depression; his foreign policy via the Eisenhower Doctrine planted the seeds for reactionary, anti-American sentiment in the Middle East--which we still see today in the form of Iran, Syria, and Iraq.  What is more, he even let Birchers like Ezra Taft Benson get sway in national politics.  A good man and a fabulous general, but an awful President.
