We must not expect a full-scale peaceful revolution every time a Labour Government is elected
Roy Jenkins
Image
I'm having my platform run up by a movie set designer, so it will be very impressive from the front, but not too premanent. After all, there's no sense putting a lot of time and thought into something you'll have no use for after you're elected.
Gracie Allen

There's no question that [Donald] Trump got elected because of rural America. And our party still is in denial. They don't get it.
Collin Peterson

Democracy demands that elected members be able to realize fully the role for which they have been chosen.
Pierre Trudeau
Image
I was much more comfortable and a much better congressman running in a district that was 37 percent black, where I had to have a white constituency to get elected, than I would have been if I was in a 75 percent black district.
Andrew Young

So if Hillary [Clinton] is elected president, it will make history in two ways. She'll be the first woman president. And Bill Clinton, he'll be the first man and the first former president to return to the White House in the capacity of spouse.
Terry Gross
Image
Some party hack decreed that the people had lost the government's confidence and could only regain it with redoubled effort. If that is the case, would it not be simpler, If the government simply dissolved the people And elected another?
Bertolt Brecht
Image
My sense was that most of the elected officials in Washington - in their heart of hearts - really believe that the system can't be too bad because it produced them. And when people in power can stay in power they do very little to tinker with the apparatus that put them in power. We've seen it time after time after time.

Mitch McConnell further said he was kind of surprised that a rich guy like Donald Trump could be elected! Yeah, it's bad enough that the Democrats believe their own media, the Drive-By Media.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
In proportion as the mass of citizens who possess political rights increases, and the number of elected ruler's increases, the actual power is concentrated and becomes the monopoly of a smaller and smaller group of individuals.
Paul Lafargue
Image
The heartbreak of runaway corruption, abuse of power and indefensible criminality by our government and media should, must inspire all good we-the-people Americans to wake the hell up from the embarrassing self-inflicted curse of apathy and start demanding Constitutional accountability from our elected employees.
Ted Nugent

I am First Lady by accident. I was not elected by the people but here I am.
Imelda Marcos
Image
I think the scientists have really caught the attention of the people of this country, and of course, they elected representatives by their very clear pronouncement that if we don't do something, we'll be in a lot of trouble.
Barbara Boxer
Image
Because people were attracted to him because he was not elected to an office. He was not a politician. And like you said before, he was a person that people say Wow! He has the idea! But the more and more you listen to Donald Trump, the more you have the sense that he is not the person that's going to run the country. And I have strong views.
Dalia Mogahed

All it takes to get elected in twenty-first-century America is a mob of frightened sheep and a wolf with a nice smile.
Greg Bear
Image
A lot of people are in politics to make friends, too, instead of making positive change. Theyre worried about getting re-elected.
Jon Runyan
Image
I am the constitutionally and legitimately elected sheriff, and I absolutely refuse to surrender my responsibility to the federal government.
Joe Arpaio
Image
The whole bloody system is sick: the very notion of leadership, a balloon with a face painted upon it, elected and inflated by media's diabolic need to reduce ideas to personalities.
Kate Millett
Image
John McCain, who once called Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson 'forces of evil', has now come out for teaching intelligent design. That is sad, when smart people have to pretend to be so dumb to get elected.
Bill Maher
Image
No judge can stop us from praying for our country and I pray that on May 6, millions of Americans will join me in praying for our President, all of our elected leaders, and even for this unjust judge and all those who rule from the bench - that God would guide them and give them wisdom.
Franklin Graham
Image
General Motors committed likewise to invest billions of dollars in its American manufacturing operation, keeping many jobs here that were going to leave. And if I didn't get elected, believe me, they would have left, and these jobs and these things that I am announcing would never have come here.
Donald Trump
Image
Your democratically elected governments continuously perpetuate injustice against my people all over the world, and your support of them makes you directly responsible, just as I am directly responsible for protecting and avenging my Muslim brothers and sisters.
Mohamed Khan
Image
In my view, stability only comes with a government that is elected by the people and works for the people.
Mohamed ElBaradei
Image
Do the elected officials in Washington stand with ordinary Americans - working families, children, the elderly, the poor - or will the extraordinary power of billionaire campaign contributors and Big Money prevail? The American people, by the millions, must send Congress the answer to that question.
Bernie Sanders
