80-year-old quote, so no one in particular is being bashed here, but I think it applies in spades to politics in general (especially when I look at the fiscally impossible situation the government is now in, by popular demand. A situation that simply will not be fixed until after the trainwreck):
"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
