If you think that letting western Europe and South Korea become Stalin's playthings was a good idea, that is. Truman did what was necessary to prevent the spread of communism.

Western Europe would have become Stalin's plaything?  Seriously?  You cannot possibly believe that.
One thing is for sure:  If Wallace was the president, he would have never used the atom bomb on a non-white nation.

btw, the Marshall Plan, probably the best thing Truman did, was Wallace's idea (from when he was Secretary of Commerce).  Truman was also very much responsible for the Cold War, the main reason the US military budget is so huge 70 years later, while there's no money for infrastructures, education or health care.

Yeah, this. In hindsight the Soviet system was destined to collapse anyway and there was no need for the massive military expansion during the Cold War.
