[VIDEO] Aug. 27, 1964 | Hubert Humphrey VP Acceptance Speech

Aug. 27, 1964 - Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D-Minn.) excoriated Sen. Barry Goldwater (GOP-Ariz.) in a speech last night in which he accepted the Vice-Presidential nomination.

Humphrey depicted the Republican Presidential nominee as a backward-looking radical who would divide the American people.

He pictured Goldwater as a man with “childlike answers” to complex problems and with political appeal only “to passions and prejudice and to fear and bitterness.”
