What Truman had to say about equality

Harry Truman, one of the great Presidents, was a student of Western history, going back to the Greeks and Romans. He gave a lot of thought to leadership, and why and how some people rise to it while others don’t. His view, with which I concur, gets to the essence of our American democracy, in which all men are created equal—but that doesn’t translate into all men having equal outcomes in their lives.
