My grandfather was 20 in 1948, and though he couldn't vote he strongly supported Wallace at the time. He lived in Brownsville, then a Jewish ghetto in Brooklyn. When I asked him about Wallace and the 1948 election, this was his response: "We were surprised he didn't do better. Everyone you knew was for Wallace. But then you remembered, everyone you knew was a Brooklyn Jew."
