This episode is brought to you by our sponsor, David Chung from Orange County, California.

David and I go way back all the way to middle school, and we even went to high school and college together.

David has been a loyal listener to our podcast.

His favorite president is Abraham Lincoln and believes that our 16th president's life story resonates with us especially today.

David notes that Lincoln served during a divisive time, the Civil War, where he faced the difficult issues of race and worked hard to unite the country.

David believes that Lincoln's accomplishment in upholding the Union was all the more poignant given the personal tragedies that Lincoln endured during his life, especially losing a son while in the White House, and ultimately because he himself lost his life just at the moment of victory.

Thanks, David, for all your support.

And now on to our episode. Thank you, David, for all your support. And now on to our episode.

In our previous episode, we studied the rise of Dwight David Eisenhower, from his humble

beginnings in Kansas to becoming the most respected American of his time. We covered his service during World

War II and his election as the 34th President of the United States. He was the second chief

executive to preside during the Cold War, so we discussed his strategy to contain the Soviet Union,

his belief that fiscal stability was the key to victory in the Cold War,

and that the threat of massive retaliation and a willingness to engage in nuclear brinksmanship

were the best ways to achieve that stability. How his strategy played out is the subject of this

episode of this American president. Caring for someone with dementia is one of the toughest journeys, but you don't have to do it alone.
