Eyes is the attempt to tell the story of the Civil Rights movement and to create an emotional, intellectual constituency. But what do you do after that? The black community doesn't have institutions that pick up such moments and preserve them. Henry Hampton American Activist More Henry Hampton Quotes 0
He or she must be successful in economic terms, but always within an ethical framework. Whether his or her constituency is a corporation and its shareholders or the customers in a small and privately held business, his or her first responsibility is to serve that constituency. Lee R. Raymond American Businessman More Lee R. Raymond Quotes 0

I know from my constituency what is going on. Doctors that are told, begged, by mothers, 'Please don't write down that my child as asthma. Please lie and say it's bronchitis, because if you write down asthma, when my child turns 18 or 20 and has to get his or her own insurance, it will be a pre-existing condition.'

For me it's more important to look at each constituency individually and find a community I feel I can serve to the best of my abilities, and where I feel I can make a real difference, and further their cause. Adam Rickitt British Actor More Adam Rickitt Quotes 0
I have no great urge to be minister of this or minister of that, but instead would feel incredible blessed to have the opportunity to be a champion for a constituency and fight for their cause. Adam Rickitt British Actor More Adam Rickitt Quotes 0
People are free to campaign and they will be free to vote. There won't be any soldiers, you know, at the queues. Anyone who has the right to vote is free to go and cast his vote anywhere in his own area, in his own constituency. Robert Mugabe Zimbabwean Statesman More Robert Mugabe Quotes 0

They do this double game because they've got this constituency that is so inflammable and can rise up and threaten the kingdom. Bill Nelson American Politician More Bill Nelson Quotes 0
This is her dilemma. A lot of the pressures of her constituency point to her taking a very aggressive position on withdrawing from Iraq. But her role as minority leader demands that she pick a position that does not damage the chances of Democrats in races around the country. Bruce Cain More Bruce Cain Quotes 0
If the mayor is representing an independent constituency, he may be representing less than 10 people in the city. Chuck Hughes More Chuck Hughes Quotes 0
Sportsmen represent a very important constituency to this campaign. They reflect, in many cases, the interests and views of a majority of Americans and rural America. Danny Diaz More Danny Diaz Quotes 0
As long as greed, stupidity and cowardice remain a part of the human condition, there will be a constituency for Democrats. Jack Kelly More Jack Kelly Quotes 0
Ideologies aren't all that important. What's important is psychology. The Democratic constituency is just like a herd of cows. All you have to do is lay out enough silage and they come running. That's why I became an operative working with Democrats. With Democrats all you have to do is make a lot of noise, lay out the hay, and be ready to use the ole cattle prod in case a few want to bolt the herd. Eighty percent of the people who call themselves Democrats don't have a clue as to political reality. What amazes me is that you could take a group of people who are hard workers and convince them that they should support social programs that were the exact opposite of their own personal convictions. Put a little fear here and there and you can get people to vote any way you want. The voter is basically dumb and lazy. The reason I became a Democratic operative instead of a Republican was because there were more Democrats that didn't have a clue than there were Republicans. Truth is relative. Truth is what you can make the voter believe is the truth. If you're smart enough, truth is what you make the voter think it is. That's why I'm a Democrat. I can make the Democratic voters think whatever I want them to. James Carville More James Carville Quotes 0
MTV's constituency is probably more accustomed to outlandish behavior than the prime demographic for a Super Bowl audience, ... Wall Street would look at that (the controversy and any fine) more as a one-time event, not as a change in underlying earnings power. Jeffrey Logsdon More Jeffrey Logsdon Quotes 0
If you're expecting the constituency during the course of your campaign to get out and vote and you haven't done it yourself, it's almost a paradox here, why would I vote if he didn't vote kind of thing. Jerry Shuster More Jerry Shuster Quotes 0
I sense a frightening surprise in that category. It's a very tough category. Each of those artists have their constituency with the voters, and none of them are going to be big enough ... to steal the constituency of someone else. Joe Levy More Joe Levy Quotes 0
She's got name recognition, she has a solid constituency, and she has a targeted women's constituency. As first lady, she started out with being a hero to women working outside the home. During the latter part of the '90s, during [the Monica Lewinsky scandal] and impeachment, she became a hero to traditional wives. Whether she orchestrated it or not, she got people to admire her. John Zogby More John Zogby Quotes 0
There are only two United States senators who have a truly national constituency. One's name is Ted Kennedy and one's name is John McCain. Ken Duberstein More Ken Duberstein Quotes 0
Republicans are not free to ignore the anti-war constituency either. Not only do more that 25 percent of Republican voters oppose candidates who support the war, but the fastest growing group of voters -- independents -- overwhelmingly support the pledge. So, that all important swing voter can cause Republicans to lose elections - and could become a new source of support for Democrats -- or if both parties fail to support voters wishes then candidates running independent of the two parties may find a new foundation on which to build an independent political movement.
