“Candidate Obama was either exceptionally naive or willfully disingenuous when he vowed to change the way Washington works. The very promise of Hope and Change was rooted in uprooting the Washington modus operandi. But instead of rejecting it, he embraced it all - the secrecy, the closed doors, the political favors, the near-criminal negligence.” WayPoliticalDoorsPromiseCriminalsFavorsCandidatesRootedNaiveSecrecyRejectingClosed DoorsNegligenceDisingenuousHope And ChangeModus OperandiUprooting Author:Reince Priebus
“Majorities are of two sorts: (1) communal majority and (2) political majority. A political majority is changeable in its class composition. A political majority grows. A communal majority is born. The admission to a political majority is open. The door to a communal majority is closed. The politics of political majority are free to all to make and unmake. The politics of communal majority are made by its own members born in it.” MadeTwoPoliticalGrowsBornClassDoorsCommunicationMembersMajorityCompositionAdmission Author:B. R. Ambedkar

“Religion is a personal, private matter and parents, not public school officials, should decide their children's religious training. We should not have teacher-led prayers in public schools, and school officials should never favor one religion over another, or favor religion over no religion (or vice versa). I also believe that schools should not restrict students' religious liberties. The free exercise of faith is the fundamental right of every American, and that right doesn't stop at the schoolhouse door.” ShouldBelieveChildrenMatterHumorSchoolPoliticalParentReligiousPrayerLibertyTeacherDoorsStudentsExerciseTrainingFundamentalsVicesFavorsOfficialsPublic SchoolVice VersaPolitical HumorReligious Liberty Author:George W.
