There was some attempt to capitalize on the general administrative strategies of former Republican presidents while in office. According to Maranto, Republican politicians had long been known as non-bureaucratic. Therefore, in an effort to combat this image, President Eisenhower, and succeeding Presidents Nixon and Reagan, executed administrative decisions strategically. Additional research on former United States President Dwight Eisenhower's economic policies and platforms detail the economic policies that Eisenhower pushed for, why he felt they were necessary, and how successful they were. In an historical analysis, Thurber questioned the effectiveness of the executive order and its ability to combat discrimination regarding government contract work due to its failure to fix systemic injustice and discrimination issues. In 1961, President John F. Kennedy superseded the order with Executive Order 10925. (en)
