More from Harry Truman
"Democracy is a government in which the people are boss. And if they don't like what's going on, they can throw the bums out."
"The only thing that I have found that is more difficult than being President is being a candidate for President."
"It's a wonder that the Lord doesn't just wipe us all out."
"I've learned that you can't please all the people all the time, and you shouldn't try."
"I have always been a great believer in the common sense of the common man."
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.
