Humphrey’s Rise From South Dakota Boy to Vice President
Hubert Horatio Humphrey 67 is portrayed as a driven figure with a long road from Wallace to the national stage. Born May 27, 1911, in a drugstore room, he faced early economic hardship, became Minneapolis mayor at 34, and rose to national prominence after guiding civil rights at the 1948 Democratic convention. He defends Vietnam loyalty and insists liberal goals have become law.
