  • Neill Albert Wallace (October 1, 1918 - June 23, 2000) was the 37th President of the United States of America, serving from September 1st, 1978, to January 20th, 1981. Prior to that office, he was the Vice President of the United States, holding that office from January 20th, 1977 until the assassination of Adam Eisler on September 1st, 1978. He served as the United States Senator from Louisiana from 1959 to 1977 and was considered one of the "progressive Southerners" who emerged out of the rejection of segregation in the South beginning in the late 1950's. While his Senate career and earlier stint as Lieutenant Governor of Louisiana had made him an icon within the moderates in the Southern wing of the Democratic Party, he was considered a failure as President and he declined to run for reelection in 1980, feeling that his energy was better focused on alleviating the ongoing depression and managing the war in Brazil while fulfilling the rest of his predecessor's term. Wallace's Presidency was marked for attempted insurance reform, the early 1980s economic crisis, the Three Mile Island incident, the eruption of Mt. St. Helens in Washington state, the escalation of the Brazilian War and the continued drawdown of the Ceylon occupation force. In later years, historians have taken a much more favorable stance towards Wallace, feeling that he did the best job possible under unenviable circumstances and made the wise decision to retire when he did.
