All these are true statements about President Dwight Eisenhower:
- He desegregated the military.
- He balanced the budget.
- He cut military spending.
- He warned of an arms race.
- He initiated a network of multi-lane interstate highways linking cities.
The "Fair Deal" programs had been the agenda of President Harry Truman, so that's the one answer not to include in the list.
I'd like to add a word about Eisenhower's warning concerning an all-consuming arms race. His words, from his farewell speech as president, famously spoke of the "military-industrial complex."
Here's a small section of that speech, delivered in 1961:
<em> The conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual -- is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.</em>
<em> In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.</em>
<em> We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.</em>

Answer:Despite the acceptance by many Americans in the 1840s of the concept of Manifest Destiny—that it was the providential right of the United States to expand to the Pacific Ocean—the future boundary between the United States and Mexico was anything but a foregone conclusion. Great Britain, with whom the United States shared possession of the Oregon Country, was part of the equation. Some influential Americans were convinced that the British were determined to block U.S. expansion to the Pacific by gaining control of California from Mexico. In 1846, however, Britain’s ambitions in the region became clearer when the U.S. and Britain agreed upon the 49th parallel (the present border between the U.S. and Canada) as the permanent boundary between their lands in the Pacific Northwest. Still, U.S. Pres. James K. Polk remained determined to expand the country’s territorial limits.
Mexico–United States relations (Spanish: Relaciones México-Estados Unidos), also knows as Mexican-American relations, refers to the bilateral relations between Mexico and the United States. The two countries share a maritime and land border. Several treaties have been concluded between the two nations bilaterally, such as the Gadsden Purchase, and multilaterally, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement. Both are members of various international organizations, including the Organization of American States and the United Nations.
I’d say no. I would try and draw bad things with x over them but than I would show good things to do with checks on them.
