Thanks Bob. Interesting article. Frankly, Sanders is only
superficially similar to Truman. I think Sanders really is an
Independent, while Truman was a machine politician. His only
Independence was the town he lived in.
Once again, myths and Fairy Tales are beginning to blur the mean
spirited little man that Harry Truman was. Remember, he was a
compromise vice president, in order to force Henry Wallace off the
ticket. Harry kept the Dixicrats in line...sort of. Harry approved
the murder of countless thousands of Japanese, in order to test a new
weapon of super mass destruction. And Harry sat by at his piano while
the House Unamerican Activities Committee destroyed the lives of many
caring Americans.
If there were a Hell, Harry would be in good company.

Hi all,
Here's an interesting post. Sad how the mainstream democrats have swung
wildly to the right over the last 30 years.
