“One wonders whether the Obama re-election campaign may be on the right track as it seeks to apply the you-break-it-you-own-it rule to Bush and the American economy. Hardly a day goes by without President Obama or his surrogates arguing that it takes longer than four years to recover from an economic crisis so long in the making.” YearsMayLongPresidentWonderBreakEconomyFourEconomicElectionCrisisTrackArguingCampaignsPresident ObamaFour YearsRight TrackEconomic CrisisSurrogatesAmerican Economy Author:Jon Meacham
“It may seem to your conceited to suppose that you can do anything important toward improving the lot of mankind. But this is a fallacy. You must believe that you can help bring about a better world. A good society is produced only by good individuals, just as truly as a majority in a presidential election is produced by the votes of single electors. Everybody can do something toward creating in his own environment kindly feelings rather than anger, reasonableness rather than hysteria, happiness rather than misery.” WorldBelieveMayImportantHelpingFeelingsSeemsIndividualCan DoEnvironmentMankindCreatingVoteElectionMajorityMiseryPresidentialImprovingFallacyHysteriaCan Do SomethingConceitedPresidential ElectionDoing Your BestReasonableness Book:A Fresh Look at Empiricism: 1927-42 Source: A Fresh Look at Empiricism: 1927-42
