Description: Vintage Antique Photo Snapshot Nostalgic Americana Historic Politics Vice President Nominee Richard Nixon Speech 1952 Politicians Government I like Ike Campaign US Senator General Dwight D. Eisenhower was nominated for president by the Republicans in 1952. He had no strong preference for a vice-presidential candidate, and Republican officeholders and party officials met in a "smoke-filled room" and recommended Nixon to the general, who agreed to the senator's selection. Nixon's youth (he was then 39), stance against communism, and political base in California—one of the largest states—were all seen as vote-winners by the leaders. Among the candidates considered along with Nixon were Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio, Governor Alfred Driscoll of New Jersey, and Senator Everett Dirksen of Illinois.[85][86] On the campaign trail, Eisenhower spoke of his plans for the country, and left the negative campaigning to his running mate.[87] ***Free Shipping On Each Additional Purchase*** October #4
