What I Learned Today: Henry Schricker

Hoisted from the comments at Steve Benen (augmented by two minutes' original research):

Henry Schricker was governor of Indiana in 1944 when Franklin D. Roosevelt asked him to serve as candidate for vice-president on the Democratic national ticket. Shricker refused, saying "a man ought to know his limitations."

There is a Henry Schricker Toll Road Plaza and Wifi Hotspot outside Elkhart, IN.
