President blog discussion.
Truman- He was in office when WWII ended. He had a hard time because we moved right into the Cold War. He also was in office during a big time for civil rights. He had a ten point plan for desegregating. He was partially responsible for making Israel into a country. He was the president who dropped the atomic bomb. He implemented the Fair Deal. The Fair Deal was like the New Deal. There were a few assassination attempts, but they were obviously unsuccessful.
Ike- Plessy v. Ferguson and Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka are important cases in civil rights.
