Harry Truman

It has been a sad experience for me.

This great man has been the subject of an infamous attack by two Republican isolationist Senators.

And now, my friends, I come to the thing that disturbs me most deeply of all.

I am out here in one of my capacities as leader of my party, campaigning for a Democratic victory in the election this fall.

This is a beautiful place.

Nothing more contemptible has ever occurred in the long history of human spite and envy.

I thank you very much for that wonderful welcome, and I appreciate that formal reception by the military band over there.

That kind of moral blindness brands the Republican candidate as unfit to be President of the United States.

The private power lobby has been spending millions of dollars to persuade the people that everything from TVA to Boulder Dam is 'creeping socialism.'

Vote for Adlai Stevenson and John Sparkman, and the whole Democratic ticket, and you will have 4 more years of good government all across the country.

I didn't know whether you knew that or not-but I am going to leave the Government of the United States in good hands.

I believe with all my heart that it is in the best interests of the country for the Democrats to win this election.

I tell the truth on them, and that's a lot better for the country than giving them hell, because they can't stand the truth.

Twenty years ago, when the American people voted the Republicans out of office, there were 12 to 14 million people out of work in this country.

The Democratic Party's policy is the welfare and benefit of all the people, not just a few.

We have never had abler men to head the Democratic ticket than we have in Adlai Stevenson and John Sparkman.

One of the things we hope to do in the future is this Upper Colorado River storage project.

I want you to get out the record and read it, find out just how many projects they tried to sabotage, find out their record on everything that has been for the welfare and benefit of this country; and you will find that the majority of the…

They have shown by their record that they stand for the interests of the common everyday man.

I think it would be a tragedy for the present Republican candidate to be elected President of the United States.

It is a good American program of developing the resources of the people for the benefit of the people.

I think we have the best platform any political party ever adopted, and think the Republican platform is about the worst one I ever read.

Your candidate for the House of Representatives, Mr. Ernest McKay, knows the importance of using our national resources for the benefit of all the people, instead of just the special interests.

We are going to win on the basis of our record, our platform, and our candidates.

We all want our country to continue as the leader and the partner in the free world's work for peace.
