Harry Truman actually said...

"There are men in the Congress who do not yet realize that we are an international nation now, and not just a Republic bounded on the east by the Atlantic and on the west by the Pacific."

"They are both key positions in the national defense of the United States on its western borders."

"I am not one of those who thinks that another world war is inevitable."

"We are going to get the truth to those people, and we won't have to do it with guns, I am sure."
