His speech as reported here is interesting because it presages the lines the left would take in opposing opposition to communism, hindering in every way possible the Marshall plan, opposing Churchill's Iron Curtain speech, apologizing for of the Soviet Union's rendering Eastern Europe into a police state, etc. Wallace himself was probably a Communist and there is allegedly evidence in Soviet archives to that effect.
The damage to the country if he had become president at that time is incalculable, we might actually have lost the Cold War.
Oliver Stone considered it a tragedy that Wallace didn’t become President.
Sort of like if Hillary won in 2016..
“Henry a Wallace, who by the intervention of divine Providence was dumped in the Democrat convention of 1940 from his office of Vice President of the United States.”
While not disagreeing with you, I need to correct the record. Henry Wallace was Vice President from 1941 to 1945. It was the 1944 convention that pushed him out, not 1940.
