Comparisons with polls done during the Korean War and during the Vietnam War
show that support for the Korean War dwindled to as low as popular support
for the Vietnam War. The disapproval simply wasn't as vocal or visual.

Janet,

You are right on that.

The public poll I saw on the Eisenhower Library website
showed only 35% of Americans believed that
the Korean War was worth fighting for in 1952.

No wonder Eisenhower won the election by
pledging to end the war.
