More from Harry Truman
"I'm just a country boy who got caught up in the big city."
"It isn't the polls that count, it's the totals."
"I wonder how many people have ever thought of a President as a man who has to put up with a lot of slanders and lies."
"I have often thought that the best way to get a man to do something is to tell him that he can't do it."
"I believe in the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. But sometimes, you have to hit them over the head with it."
About Harry Truman (1884-1972)
33rd US President who ended WWII (atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki), founded NATO and the Marshall Plan, and integrated the US military. Closely associated with Franklin D. Roosevelt (his predecessor) and Dwight D. Eisenhower (his successor). For an intellectual contrast, see Henry A. Wallace, FDR's progressive Vice President (1941-1945) — Wallace was the VP Truman replaced on the 1944 ticket; Wallace's 1948 Progressive Party campaign attacked Truman from the left for starting the Cold War — the moral road not taken at the dawn of the atomic age.
