Thanks Bob Burgermeister for these quotes. I dont know why we even bother to elect a president... Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job. -- Douglas Adams, British writer, (1952-2001) The presidency has made every man who occupied it, no matter how small, bigger than he was; and no matter how big, not big enough for its demands. -- Lyndon B. Johnson, American 36th US President (1908-1973) All the president is, is a glorified public relations man who spends his time flattering, kissing, and kicking people to get them to do what they are supposed to do anyway. -- Harry S Truman, American 33rd President of the United States, (1884-1972) Take our politicians: theyre a bunch of yo-yos. The presidency is now a cross between a popularity contest and a high school debate, with an encyclopedia of cliches the first prize. -- Saul Bellow, Canadian born American novelist, (1915-2005) The President is the last person in the world to know what the people really want and think. -- James A. Garfield, American 20th President, (1831-1881) Politics, where fat, bald, disagreeable men, unable to be candidates themselves, teach a president how to act on a public stage. -- Jimmy Breslin, American journalist, (b.1929) In a rational society we would want our presidents to be teachers. In our actual society we insist they be cheerleaders. -- Steve Allen, American comic, actor, composer and writer, (1921-2000) Anybody who wants the presidency so much that hell spend two years organizing and campaigning for it is not to be trusted with the office. -- David Broder, American journalist, (1929-2011) Being president is like being a jackass in a hailstorm. Theres nothing to do but to stand there and take it. -- Lyndon B. Johnson, American 36th US President (1908-1973)
