CAMPAIGNING

“When we got into office, the thing that surprised me most was to find that things were just as bad as we’d been saying they were.”

—JOHN F. KENNEDY

“Watch me closely during the campaign because I won’t be any better a president than I am a candidate.”

—JIMMY CARTER

“[W]hen we were all elected, we were all fuzzy on the issues—which is proven by the fact that we did get elected. There is an advantage in being a Presidential candidate. You have a much broader range of issues on which to be fuzzy.”

—JIMMY CARTER
