This chapter discusses the legacies that Eisenhower, H. W. Bush, and Obama left behind. It traces how perceptions of these presidents changed over time and evaluates how their example of leadership stands in history’s light, making the case for the enduring relevance of the Middle Way. It subsequently extrapolates lessons these presidents offer for presidential leadership and US foreign policy today: recognizing the limits of power; appreciating the value of incremental change, rewarding strategic foresight, maintaining tragic optimism, embracing moderation as a virtue.
