Text Quotes
Fundamental problem in American democracy is that we are allowing congressmen and senators to be bought and sold like sneakers.  (American Quotes) Franklin may . . . be considered one of the founding fathers of American democracy, since no democratic government can last long without conciliation and compromise.  (American Quotes) American democracy and the Soviet system may peacefully exist side by side and compete with each other. But one cannot evolve into the other.  (American Quotes) You do not keep American democracy in suspense. Because, look, too many people have marched and protested and fought and died for this democracy.  (American Quotes) The American polity is infected with a serious imbalance of power between elites and masses, a power which is the principal threat to our democracy.  (American Quotes) There is no more important struggle for American democracy than ensuring a diverse, independent and free media. Free Press is at the heart of that struggle.  (American Quotes) There is a long American tradition of suspicion of concentrated economic power because of its tendency to corrupt government and turn it from a democracy into a plutocracy.  (American Quotes) The American public should simply accept no distractions. In our democracy, it is our duty to hold our elected leaders accountable. We do it at the ballot box.  (American Quotes) A more important antidote to American democracy is American gerontocracy. The positions of eminence and authority in Congress are allotted in accordance with length of service, regardless of quality.  (American Quotes) Speaking as a Democrat, all my life battling for what I conceived to be Democracy, and what I conceived to be right, I am yet an American above Democracy.  (American Quotes) My primary motivation for running for the 9th Congressional District is that I strongly believe that one of the hallmarks of the American democracy is a representative form of democracy.  (American Quotes) When we are fighting for huge stakes - we’re fighting for the future - future of the planet in terms of climate change. We’re fighting for the future of American democracy.  (American Quotes) Resurrecting American democracy is vital to averting climate catastrophe. We must first repeal the Supreme Court’s Citizens United ruling, which has flooded elections with billions of oily petrodollars from carbon tycoons.  (American Quotes) Super PACs and a corrupt campaign finance system are destroying American democracy. We’re proud that we have received four million individual contributions, more than any candidate in American history at this point.  (American Quotes) It would be easy to descend into despair, not only about the state of journalism, but the future of American democracy. But giving up is not an option. There is too much at stake.  (American Quotes) We need a very progressive and strong agenda to bring people into the political process because I worry very much about the future of the American democracy where so many people are giving up.  (American Quotes) I grew up with a heavy diet of gospel, folk, and blues because those are kind of the cornerstones of traditional American music.  (American Quotes) The American diet causes disease. It is composed of 25 percent animal products and 62 percent processed foods and only 5 percent of calories from fruits and vegetables.  (American Quotes) Making changes in the fast food that makes up such a significant part of the American diet, even if the numbers aren’t impressive, will have important health up sides.  (American Quotes) The problem with the standard American diet, a primary cause of our current obesity epidemic, is the fact that the majority of foods consumed are high in calories and low in micronutrients.  (American Quotes) As American as an apple is and as American as baseball is, they don’t go together. You can’t be chewing an apple at a baseball game. You’ve got to let go of the diet that day.  (American Quotes) Sodium is an important mineral that is essential for proper functioning of the human body - however, the American diet contains dangerously high amounts of sodium, almost 80 percent of which comes from processed and restaurant foods.  (American Quotes) The 20th-century ulcer epidemic was a sign of good health in American people - good diet, strong acidity and healthy immune response actually make ulcers more likely. That’s why businessmen eating giant T-bone steaks were prone to ulcers.  (American Quotes) Excess dietary salt is most notorious for increasing blood pressure. Americans have a 90 percent lifetime probability of developing high blood pressure - so even if your blood pressure is normal now, if you continue to eat the typical American diet, you will be at risk.  (American Quotes) Hindered by asthma since I was six weeks old, I had begun experimenting with my diet and discovered a disquieting correlation. When I stopped eating the normal American diet of sugar, fats, alcohol, chemicals, and additives, I felt better. I could breathe freely. When I tried to sneak in a hamburger and a Coke, my body rebelled.  (American Quotes) Barack knows the American Dream because he’s lived it - and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where we’re from, or what we look like, or who we love.  (American Quotes) In this remarkable time for the world, I refuse to believe it’s time to stop believing in the possibilities of our remarkable country. I refuse to accept the downsizing of the American Dream. I refuse to bet against American entrepreneurial spirit and American ingenuity.The competition’s tough, and it requires us to be tougher - tough-minded, never hard hearted.  (American Quotes) The American Dream is independence and being able to create that dream for yourself  (American Quotes) I feel that The American Dream is this fallacy that you come to the United States and win lotto. That’s a disservice to The American Dream because the American Dream is worth striving for. And it’s not easy.  (American Quotes) I’ve lived the American Dream, but, sadly, for too many, the American Dream is fading  (American Quotes)
