WALTER CHILDRESS
PRESIDENT HARRY TRUMAN NAMED HIM AS ONE OF THE BEST PRESIDENTS BECAUSE POLK SET OUT FOUR (4)GOALS BEFORE TAKING OFFICE, AND ACCOMPLISHED ALL OF THEM. HE WANTED TO EXPAND THE UNITED STATES BY BRINGING TEXAS INTO THE UNION AND ACQUIRING TERRITORY THAT WENT TO THE PACIFIC OCEAN; SETTLED THE DISPUTE BETWEEN U.S. AND ENGLAND GAINING TERRITORY IN THE NORTHWEST; SETTLED TARIFF PROBLEM THAT WAS HARMING U,S,, AND ESTABLISHED THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT. IT APPEARS THAT HE MAY HAVE WORKED HIMSELF TO DEATH, LITERALLY, AS HE WAS IN SUCH POOR HEALTH ON LEAVING OFFICE THAT HE DIED WITHIN MONTHS AFTER LEAVING OFFICE. THE FACT THAT HARRY TRUMAN POINTED THIS OUT IS,IN IT'S SELF INTERESTING, AS HE WAS ONE OF THE GREAT, HONEST MEN,OF OUR TIMES. HE STOOD AT A TIME WHEN THE EVILS OF WAR/OPPRESSION OF THE COMMON-MAN WERE AT A MONUMENTAL CROSS-ROADS. HIS DECISIONS WERE AS GOOD AS COULD BE MADE AT THAT TIME AND PLACE FOR THE BETTERMENT OF MANKIND. HE WAS HONEST AND NO NONSENSE TYPE OF MAN,E.G.,HIS STATEMENT THAT YOU CAN'T GET RICH IN POLITICS UNLESS YOU'RE A CROOK. THE TRUTH OF THAT WE ARE LABORING UNDER IN AMERICA AT THIS TIME. GOD HAS BEEN GOOD TO US. MAY WE DESERVE IT.
