LBJ: "It is the common failing of totalitarian regimes that they cannot really understand the nature of our democracy. They mistake dissent for disloyalty. They mistake restlessness for a rejection of policy. They mistake a few committees for a country. They misjudge individual speeches for public policy."

Words to live by When history judges us, as a nation and as individuals, it will ask: What did we do to end poverty?
