I’m not sure if you’ve been watching the CNN or MSNBC, Race to the presidency, or some such series where they take a presidential contest.

It’s really excellent. Jackson vs Adams, Kennedy vs Nixon etc. The one on Truman vs Dewey was like a carbon copy of Obama vs Romney exactly.

Truman is losing big in the Summer, I mean big. He decides to get on a train and go out to the little stops. He greets the crowds from the caboose of the train.

Before he arrives, his staff gives him stats on the local news, and he throws that into his speech.

AT the convention he fires up the democrats, then going down the stretch he’s only a few points down.

Dewey all this time, is visiting places too, but gives the same canned speech each place he goes.

With a week or so left, Dewey decides to play it safe, and doesn’t attack Truman on some thing he said about republicans in general. He wanted to, but his staff said to be more presidential and be cool.

Like Romney, he lost.

Trump, is his own man. He takes NOTHING for granted. He surrounds himself with the best people.

Sounds interesting.

The Truman race is one for the record books: Dewey Beats Truman!!—NOT!

I am glad Trump is being himself—why should he act like the GOP and the media want him to act?

They are both lyin’ losers anyway!

And they have never been the man in the arena, as Teddy Roosevelt would say.
