Dwight D. Eisenhower
德怀特•艾森豪威尔
Dwight D. Eisenhower served as the 34th President of the United States, governing from 1953 to 1961, after a military career culminating in his role as Supreme Commander of Allied Forces in Europe in World War II. Eisenhower's presidency was largely occupied by foreign affairs, most notably the Korean War, the expansion of United States involvement in the Middle East after the Suez Crisis, and the general deepening of the Cold War. Even domestically many of Eisenhower's achievements were shaped by national security, including the construction of the interstate highway system. Eisenhower joined the Presbyterian Church as an adult, and played a role in the addition of "In God We Trust" on American currency. Eisenhower famously quipped, "Our government has no sense unless it is founded in a deeply felt religious faith, and I don't care what it is."
德怀特•艾森豪威尔在1953年至1961年期间担任美国第34任总统。在此之前，他戎马生涯，曾在第二次世界大战期间担任盟军欧洲战场的总司令。艾森豪威尔在任期内主要应对国际事务，例如朝鲜战争停战，美国介入中东事务，以及冷战全面加深。即使在内政方面，艾森豪威尔的许多决策也是出于国家安全的考量，例如建设州际高速公路。艾森豪威尔的母亲是守望台圣经书社（现今为耶和华见证人）的成员，但他在成年之后与该组织脱离了关系，改而加入长老会。艾森豪威尔曾诙谐地说道：“如果我们的政府不是建立在感同身受的宗教信仰之上，那么它的存在就毫无意义，我也因此不在乎它到底是个什么鬼”。
