    Eisenhower's Farewell Address: What's Up With the Title?

      "Eisenhower's Farewell Address" is a pretty straightforward title. It was given by Dwight Eisenhower a couple days before he stepped down as president and passed the baton to John F. Kennedy. Sometimes the speech is referred to as "Eisenhower's Farewell Address to the Nation," a clarification that isn't really necessary.

      Who else would he be saying farewell to?
