Famous quotes containing the words candidates and/or nomination:
“The difficulty is no longer to find candidates for the offices, but offices for the candidates.”
—Thomas Jefferson (17431826)
“The confirmation of Clarence Thomas, one of the most conservative voices to be added to the [Supreme] Court in recent memory, carries a sobering message for the African- American community.... As he begins to make his mark upon the lives of African Americans, we must acknowledge that his successful nomination is due in no small measure to the support he received from black Americans.”
—Kimberly Crenshaw (b. 1959)
