Someone was talking about Harry truman the other day. When he left office harry drove in his own car back to Missori. No secret service protection.

I love Harry Truman. Although he was a Democrat, he also was a common, decent man. He was a farmer and a clothing salesman. He lived out his days in the same house he owned his whole life. Having a limited government allows familiarity with one's leaders. Having a huge Empire run from Washington gives you a self-appointed nobility behind castle walls.

He took the train back to Missouri. He never owned his home in Independence, he lived in Bess’s mother’s house.
