===Brown v. Board of Education===

Eisenhower belief that Warren would prove right-of-center was quickly proven wrong.  Warren acceded to the position of [[Chief Justice]] while ''[[Brown v. Board of Education]]'' was being reargued at the behest of associate Justice [[Frankfurter]], who ordered reargument as a stalling tactic, to allow the Justice to gather a unanimous consensus around a liberal ''Brown'' opinion that would outlaw segregation.  Associate Justice [[Vinson]] was one such stalling tactic: a staunch conservative, Vinson was a strong believer in segregation.

As a result of his accession at this difficult time, liberals prayed that Warren would prove the uniter the Court needed to overrule ''[[Plessy v. Ferguson]]'', while conservatives prayed that Warren would either be unable or unwilling to do so.  Warren quickly proved an effective leader, and much more liberal than Eisenhower had ever dreamed.
