TLS signed “Ike,” one page, 7 x 10, personal letterhead, August 13, 1952. Letter to his older brother Edgar, in part: “I am just dispatching a note to Mr. Maginnis to thank him for his contribution to the campaign. The editorial you enclosed, written by Mr. Fitzpatrick, has already been turned over to the political staff. This whole political business is very confusing. It is scarcely possible to propose a question or problem that does not instantly receive a dozen different answers—each colored by the thinking in the area in which a particular individual lives, or by the group in which he earns his livelihood. There are, for example, as many different ideas on farm problems as there are definitely defined sections of agricultural activity.” In fine condition. Despite his admitted confusion with politics, Eisenhower successfully navigated his way to the presidency, winning the election just three months later. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA.
