Our greatest President! That guy stuck it to those racist SOBS. He integrated the military and in addition pushed for civil rights. Plus he was the one who raised minimum wage, federal education funding, farm subsidies, and Social Security benefits. He tried to repeal Taft-Harley but the GOP Congress stoped him (DAMN!). Harry is probably the only President (other than Washington) who didn't cheat on his wife (not that that makes a President, I'm talking about as a person). He also always took
responsibility for himself, and stood up for what he knew was right, even when he nearly lost the
Presidential election. Harry Truman created the CIA, and stuck it to that nutjob MacArthur.
Yeah, he dropped two A-bombs on Japan, but he didn't enjoy it and mourned their deaths. Plus, the
alternative (a mainland invasion of Japan) wwould have been a hell of a lot worse. All in all, Harry Truman was our best President (well, maybe he's tied with FDR), until Barak Obama or John Kerry get elected.
"Give 'em hell Harry!"-unknown speaker at the 1948 DNC convention.
"The Buck stops here!"-Harry Truman's motto.
"
Protection by the
government!"-His address of the NAACP, he was the first
president to do so.
