Truman Opposes Stevenson Could Help Adlai Win Nomination
CHICAGO Amid debate over Harry S Truman’s role in Adlai Stevenson’s 1952 bid the ex president’s praise or endorsement is seen as potentially helping Stevenson by shaping voter perceptions. Some say Truman’s stance could prevent Stevenson from seeming Truman’s man and allow Stevenson to present himself as a distinct candidate. Others argue Truman’s opposition may still taint Stevenson in the eyes of critics who view Truman as tied to corruption or cronyism.
