Presidents come and go, and even parties come to and away from power. But the main policy tack does not change.
Vladimir Putin
Presidents come and go, but the Supreme Court goes on forever.
William Howard Taft
Presidents are not permitted to have personal feelings.
William J. Clinton
Presidents are given immense power in the American political system when it comes to personnel. FBI directors are given ten-year terms to insulate them from politics as much as one can, but it's not absolute protection. If a president wants to fire an FBI director, they can do that.
Stephen Farnsworth
Presidents are elected not by direct popular vote but by 538 members of the Electoral College.
Thomas E. Mann
Presidents have the right to nominate their own cabinet secretaries. But their nominees don't have a right to confirmation. Senators have a constitutional duty to advise and consent to the appointment of all Cabinet officials. They should take that duty seriously.
Gary Bauer
Presidents have absolutely gone against the will of Congress. Congress hasn't declared a war since December 7, 1941, and yet we've been at war ever since with somebody or other in order to justify the war machine. Now we have alienated almost the entire earth
Gore Vidal
Presidents have to be very organized to govern successfully, and solo artists rarely succeed.
Douglas Holtz-Eakin
Presidents have only two moments of personal seclusion. One is prayer the other fishing - and they cannot pray all the time!
Herbert Hoover
Presidents are afraid to lose wars. They're afraid to be outflanked on the right by the militarists. They don't want to be seen as soft on either communism or soft on terrorism or whatever. So presidents are constantly tugged away from their domestic commitments to foreign policy.
Bill Moyers
Presidents by six years have been there long enough for the media and the country to see their flaws.
Robert Dallek
Presidents Lincoln, Jefferson, Jackson, presidents have understood that the Supreme Court cannot make a law. They cannot make it. The legislature has to make it, the executive branch has to sign it and enforce it.
Mike Huckabee
Presidents don't get vacations - they just get a change of scenery. The job goes with you.
Nancy Reagan
Presidents quickly realize that while a single act might destroy the world they live in, no one single decision can make life suddenly better or can turn history around for the good.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Presidents and Lyndon Johnson was really no exception, very rapidly learned the difference between a contingency plan and an authorized act.
McGeorge Bundy
Presidents may go to the seashore or to the mountains. Cabinet officers may go about the country explaining how fortunate the country is in having such an administration, but the machinery at Washington continues to operate under the army of faithful non-commissioned officers, and the great mass of governmental business is uninterrupted.
William Howard Taft
Presidents are selected, not elected.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Presidents with strong nerves are decisive. They don't balk at unpopular decisions. They are willing to make people angry. Bush had strong nerves. Clinton, who passed up a chance to eliminate Osama bin Laden, did not. Obama is a people pleaser, a trait not normally associated with nerves of steel.
Fred Barnes
Presidents generally do what they are good at in their first four years, then spend their second term responding to the agendas imposed upon them by events.
Dick Morris
Presidents don't have power. Their job is to draw attention away from it.
Douglas Adams
Presidents cannot always kick evil-minded persons out of the front door. Such persons are often selected by the electors to represent them.
Herbert Hoover
Presidents do not go off on leave without telling the country.
Chinua Achebe
Presidents today spend more time speaking than they do reading or thinking.
Kathleen Hall Jamieson
Presidents make history but are also a product of it. And there are two kinds: transforming and transactional. Reagan was a transforming president. He made history.
David E. Hoffman
