Excerpts from Harry Truman's Chicago speech 10/25/48 still relevant today.
#2
Good speech, but just one week before an election everybody thought he was going to lose, so he was firing up the liberal voters. It still amazes me he beat three other candidates (Dewey, Wallace, Thurmond). Too bad Truman often didn't match his policies to his rhetoric (like Clinton and Obama).
