I disagree with you on the internment during WWII but that is neither here nor there. Yeah Truman did not know about the bomb until 12 days into taking the office. Setting the bomb aside he was not briefed on the invasion plans for Japan absent the bomb until he took office. Packing the Supreme Courts was a true scandal. I am glad that the longer the nation gets from the presidency of FDR the more his reputation is tarnished and more of the truth is coming out. Sadly there are so many distraction that a lot of the general public is still ignorant.
