“People think the President is the only one who can fix their problems. And, if he doesn’t produce solutions, I’m telling you—when a person loses a job, or can’t feed his family, or can’t keep his house, he is no longer rational. They become angry, they strike out—and that’s what we have now. If you’re President, they say, ‘Do something!’” —Walter Mondale on public’s “outsized” expectations of Barack Obama, September, 2010

“I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.” —Barack Obama on what to expect from him, June, 2008

In regard to what our rulers offer, Groucho had even better advice: "Whatever it is, I'm against it!"

Walter Mondale was full of crap in 1976 and despite him spewing it since then at warp speed, he's still full of crap.
