"Ike did stop the Korean War"

Yes, I'd also give him credit for finalizing the armistice (the "Korean War" still hasn't ended) but it was Truman who fired General MacArthur after he provoked China into invading North Korea, and then wanted to retaliate with nuclear bombs. I'd give Truman credit for sanity.
