“At every election, my vote goes to the candidate less likely to declare war. You're dropping hugely expensive pieces of exploding metal on a population. America deserves the president it gets, whether the country votes for them or allows their vote to be stolen, and the least we can do is to elect someone who won't do that to other people.” PeopleWarCountryAmericaPresidentCan DoPiecesDeserveVoteElectionPopulationCandidatesExpensiveMetalsStolenDroppingExploding Author:Ian MacKaye
“On Nov. 6, the day before my 94th birthday, our nation will hold one of the most critical elections in my lifetime. We are at a crossroads and there are profound moral issues at stake. I strongly urge you to vote for candidates who support the biblical definition of marriage between a man and a woman, protect the sanctity of life and defend our religious freedoms. The Bible speaks clearly on these crucial issues. Please join me in praying for America, that we will turn our hearts back toward God.” MenHeartAmericaTurnsSpeakNationsReligiousMoralSupportIssuesPrayingPleaseProtectVoteElectionLifetimeProfoundDefinitionsCriticalCandidatesUrgesCrucialStakesBiblicalReligious FreedomSanctityCrossroadsMoral IssuesSanctity Of Life Author:Billy Graham

“Latin America is very fond of the word "hope." We like to be called the "continent of hope." Candidates for deputy, senator, president, call themselves "candidates of hope." This hope is really something like a promise of heaven, an IOU whose payment is always being put off. It is put off until the next legislative campaign, until next year, until the next century.” YearsAmericaNextHeavenPresidentCenturyPromiseCampaignsCandidatesLatinContinentsSenatorsPaymentNext YearLatin AmericaDeputies Book:Memoirs Source: Memoirs
“Women are being considered as candidates for vice-president of the United States because it is the worst job in America. It's amazing that men will take it. A job with real power is first lady.

“I find focusing clearly on the problem is the first step to seeing a solution. The problem is (a) the insane amount of time spent raising money from (b) a freakishly tiny proportion of America. Basically .05% are the "relevant funders" of campaigns, meaning candidates can't help but be overly sensitive to the views of that tiny fraction relative to the rest of us. IF that's the problem, THEN the solution is to spread the funders out: to increase the range of us who are the relevant funders of elections, through schemes like vouchers or coupons given to every voter.” IfsFirstsHelpingProblemAmericaGivenViewsStepsSeeingAmountSolutionsIncreaseElectionSpreadTinyCampaignsInsaneRangeSensitiveCandidatesProportionVotersRelativeRelevantFirst StepsSchemesFractionsTime SpentRaising MoneyVouchers Author:Lawrence Lessig
