Truman History
Born May 8th, 1884 in Lamar Missouri. He was a
sickly child with very bad eyesight: thus he was forced into the world
of books and music instead of sports. He was turned down by West Point
because of his bad eyesight. Active in the Mason's and a Legionnaire, he
entered politics at age 38. Supported by a political boss in Kansas City
he was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1935. He was selected by Roosevelt
to be his running mate in 1944. Three months after the inauguration,
Truman found himself President of the United States. Harry Truman was
the first President to be broadcast from the Whitehouse on television in
1947. It was first time a President had been brought into view of the
public. |
