The piece surveys a divided nation in a curiously unsettled campaign year. It notes President Truman struggles to fill large venues and attract crowds while the Democratic Party lacks a clear alternative.

The public is skeptical, prosperous yet wary of war and foreign policy, with mixed views on Israel and Greece and a desire for leadership despite distrust of proposed leaders.
