| 词汇 | he kept us out of war |
| 词源 | he kept us out of war. The political slogan he kept us out of war has been used in two American presidential campaigns. The Democrats used it in 1916 to help return Woodrow Wil- son to the White House, only to have Wilson ask Congress to declare war on Germany a year later, “to make the world safe for democracy.” In 1956 the Republicans used it to sell Dwight D. Eisenhower as a peacemaker in Korea, though it took a backseat to the very popular “I like Ike.” See eisenhower jacket. |
