Given Harry's belligerent reticence to share his alleged education, I
thought it might be appropriate to do a little digging about Harry S
Truman and his VP nomination. It didn't take long to pull up a few
credible snippets like this one fom the US Senate historical web site:

Just bear in mind that you are reading about politicians by
politicians and it may be a bit sanitized.

Wallace was simply too far left for the prevailing power structure and
was seen as being a little too friendly with the Soviets.
In retrospect that might have resulted in a different outcome in Korea
but whether that would be better is still conjecture.
It is hard to imagine anything worse than a war that killed 58,000 GIs
and just put us back to the same stalemate we had in 1945.

There was also a question of how he might have ended the war in Japan
(nuke them or not)

McCullough's Pulitizer Prize winning bio of Truman is the best
single-volume modern version of the president's life I've read, and it
provides a lot of insight into why and how the Senator became the
vice-presidential candidate. President Roosevelt and Mrs. Roosevelt
leaned on him heavily to accept the "honor."

W'hine's comment about me is nothing short of hilarious. What a pompous
asshole he is. I'm glad I have him down there in the **** tank with
slammer and the rest of them.

FU2 Harry and the horse you rode in on.
