President Quotes
A President cannot always be popular.
Harry S Truman
When the President does it, that means that it's not illegal.
Richard M. Nixon
In Latin America, in the past, it was almost impossible to guarantee democracy. There were military dictatorships, and nowadays there are not so many military dictatorships. Although we have a dictator in Honduras, as a result of a coup, now as a president, he is almost the only one I would say. But again led or managed, gestated by the U.S. government.
Evo Morales
First of all, a president of the United States can't unilaterally impose a tariff on another country. It takes an act of Congress, and that would never pass Congress. But that's not the way to fix trade policy, to do unilateral tariffs on other countries.
Sherrod Brown
The president does have a significant negative power, bigger than the Senate upper house. It is harder to overrule the president’s veto than to approve a law which has been rejected by the higher chamber. This would lead to a continuous conflict and the inability to sort out many important issues.
Andrzej Duda
I sometimes think that when he was at Harvard Law School, Mr. Obama cut class the day they got to the separation of powers, 'cause he seems to consider it not just an inconvenience but an indignity that, although he got 270 electoral votes and therefore gets to be president, he didn't get everything.
George Will
At the end of our lives, we will not be judged by the highest public office we attained in our lifetime, if that were true the current president George W.

Being president of too many well-meaning organizations put my father into an early grave. The lesson in this was not lost on me.
Roy Blount, Jr.
I'm not going to put my lot in with economists, because I know if we get it right, if we actually did it right, if we had a president who used all the tools of the presidency, we would design it in such a way that it would be implemented effectively.
Hillary Clinton
As president, I'll set bold goals to combat climate change: generate enough renewable energy to power every home in America within 10 years and slash carbon pollution at home and around the world.

We will be drawing down some troops. If the president wants to try to turn that into the beginning of a success, he actually, I think, has some opportunity.
Stuart Rothenberg
President Obama's version of America is a divided one - pitting us against each other based on our income level, gender, and social status. His policies have failed! We are not better off than we were 4 years ago, and no rhetoric, bumper sticker, or campaign ad can change that.
