3. Henry Wallace, absolutely! He got a substantial vote.
Truman was a stubborn cold warrior. I give him credit for advancing civil rights and supporting labor. But his ferocious anti-Sovietism laid the groundwork for fascist McCarthyism. The Wallace platform was the best by far of all the candidates in 1948.
