What would Harry Truman do?

Do we need another Hary Truman in the Whitehouse?� Here are a few quotes of the late President Harry S. Truman:

“Carry the battle to them. Don’t let them bring it to you. Put them on the defensive and don’t ever apologize for anything.

I had faith in Israel before it was established, I have in it now. I believe it has a glorious future before it – not just another sovereign nation, but as an embodiment of the great ideals of our civilization.

Most of the problems a President has to face have their roots in the past.

When even one American – who has done nothing wrong – is forced by fear to shut his mind and close his mouth – then all Americans are in peril.

“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.”
