Humphrey's 1978 funeral - President Jimmy Carter's eulogy. Ooops!!
"I am speaking of a great man who should have been President and would
have been one of the greatest Presidents in history, Hubert Horatio
Hornblower."


Nice try, but it wasn't Humphrey's funeral, although people frequently
cliam it was. It was during his acceptance speech at the Democtratic
National Convention in August of 1980. I remember watching that speech
live. Humphrey died over two years earlier.
