This quote was sent to me by mini-harv, and does seem somewhat apposite…
“As democracy is perfected, the office of President represents, more and
more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious
day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last,and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”
-H.L. Mencken, Baltimore Evening Sun, July 26, 1920
