Henry Wallace was Franklin Roosevelt’s Vice President from 1940-44, and was a forerunner to modern liberalism, in that he thought socialism was a moral good. He was also duped by Stalin’s murderous henchmen on official trips to the USSR and surrounded himself with known communists. Historian Ron Radosh said “Wallace would have created an American foreign policy run by Soviet agents he had installed in the White House…” all of whom would have given Joseph Stalin precisely what he sought: control of Eastern Europe and inroads into subversion of [Western Europe].” After being rejected at the 1944 Democrat convention and a failed presidential run in 1948, Wallace repudiated his praise of the Soviet Union. All we can say is thank God Harry Truman was Vice President when FDR died in April 1945.
