Famous quotes containing the words vice president, vice and/or president:

    “The President has only 190 million bosses. The Vice President has 190 million and one.”
    —Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    “It is the vice of our public speaking that it has not abandonment. Somewhere, not only every orator but every man should let out all the length of all the reins; should find or make a frank and hearty expression of what force and meaning is in him.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “There can only be one Commander-in-Chief. In these times, crises cannot be managed and wars cannot be waged by committee. To the ears of the world, the President speaks for the nation. While he is of course ultimately accountable to Congress, the courts, and the people, he and his emissaries must not be handicapped in advance in their relations with foreign governments as has sometimes happened in the past.”
    —Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
