Hello old friend, do you remember some referred to him as Hairy Ass Truman?
I was 12 years old when he left office. He was not particularly liked in my household, although my parents were "Roosevelt democrats". I think it might have had something to do with the firing of McArthur.

I certainly do.
I grew up in a Boston neighborhood (Brighton),loaded with Irish immigrants,and they tolerated Truman but thought F.D.R. was an absolute god.
Those were the days,my FRiend. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
