".because this possible peril existed Vice President Nixon and I in consultation with the Attorney General prior to my 1956 operation reduced to memorandum form our understanding as to what would be the Vice President's role in the event of a Presidential disability." - former President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution clarifies the presidential line of succession and eliminates ambiguity about the role of the Vice President. As President Eisenhower noted in his preface his signed agreement with Vice President Nixon did not have the legal authority to make Nixon the president if Eisenhower had become incapacitated during his surgeries. The death of President Kennedy brought new focus on the presidential line of succession with legislation for the Twenty-fifth Amendment proposed by Senator Bayh in 1965 and ratified by the states in 1967.

308161/3/52. <blockquote><p>Justice Owen J. Roberts resigned from the Supreme Court to advocate for a Federal Union of democracies and to unite one group favoring world government and the other favoring Union of the Democracies</p></blockquote><p>From 1951-52 Eisenhower was the Allied Supreme Commander in Europe which title included the post of head of NATO. In 1952 Turkey joined NATO and Ike traveled to Ankara Turkey to seal with his presence the membership of Turkey in Europe.</p><p>Justice Owen J. Roberts resigned from the Supreme Court in 1945 and was afterwards instrumental in forming the Atlantic Union which would advocate for a Federal Union of Democracies but with a gradual approach to final world union by way of regional unions. Two million people signed a petition that the U.S. and Great Britain unify others wanted to start with the U.S. and Canada. Roberts said that although he approved of NATO he thought it was a fine tradition but could not prevent war and that permanent peace required a federation of likeminded peoples. Nor could the UN be relied upon with the power the Soviets had in that body. In 1952 a new group was formed whose members agreed with Roberts’ views the Atlantic Citizens Congress whose members were drawn partly from the Atlantic Union Committee and partly from outside.</p><p><strong>Typed letter signed</strong> on his letterhead Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe 1 March 1952 to Justice Owen J. Roberts saying he is departing for Turkey and that he is grateful for receiving information on the new Atlantic Citizens organization. <em>“Dear Mr. Justice: Although my schedule is extremely rushed by last minute preparations before departing on a trip to the Mediterranean area I want you to know of my appreciation of your furnishing me a copy of Atlantic Citizens Congress. I am having it placed aboard the airplane with the hope that the long journey to Ankara on Monday will permit me an opportunity to read the booklet thoroughly. Please convey my gratitude to your distinguished associates for the compliment implicit in their request for my views on this project.â€</em></p><p>Eight months later Eisenhower is elected President of the United States.</p><p><img class=""alignnone size-post-window wp-image-25018"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20231204144051/Folder-site-11-1600x1327.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""1327"" /></p> unknown
