Dwight D. Eisenhower (nicknamed "Ike") was the 34th President of the United States, serving from 1953 to 1961. Prior to his time as President, Eisenhower held the rank of five-star general in the United States Army during World War II and served as the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe.
History
Marge and Homer once listened to a book on tape titled Mr. and Mrs. Erotic American for advice on spicing up their marriage. One piece of advice from the book, "Double your pleasure with a bath ... together!", was attributed to Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower.[1]
During his tenure as President, Eisenhower visited the Maison Derrière in Springfield to celebrate his 40th wedding anniversary. The visit was recorded via a photograph; Mrs. Eisenhower was not in the picture.[2]
Martin once drew a picture of Louis St. Laurent with US president Dwight D. Eisenhower, commenting that their relationship was "frosty at best."[3]
When the family left Grampa home while they went on a walk they kept Grampa occupied with a DVD of Dwight Eisenhower talking about golf.[4]
A picture of Eisenhower, along with the other U.S. Presidents, was seen in a book that Superintendent Chalmers showed Bart, before Bart developed an interest in Theodore Roosevelt. Bart was only able to identify a few of the Presidents, and Eisenhower was not among them.[5]
Behind the Laughter
- Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower were married in 1916, so Ike's 40th-anniversary visit to the Maison Derrière would have taken place in 1956, during his first term as President.
- In real life, Eisenhower was an avid golfer.
