Citations sur les élections

De Wikiberal.

  • Les exemples abondent de personnages élus par acclamation qui, sur le pavois où il s'offraient aux regards du peuple enivré, préparaient déjà la trame de leur trahison. A peine si, sur dix coquins, le peuple, dans ses comités, rencontre un honnête homme.
Pierre-Joseph Proudhon
  • Political elections do not choose leaders of society. Rather, they are an exercise in which groups of people choose individuals who will assist them in looting other groups of individuals, those folks who were unfortunate enough not to be able to elect their own political strongman. The process can be downright blatant, as is the case in African and Asian countries, or it can be relatively subtle as it is in the United States, where the trappings of "constitutionality" and "rule of law" hide many of the more nefarious goings on.
William Anderson, Are Politicians Leaders? 10/19/2000
  • A democracy is a place where numerous elections are held, at great cost, without issues, and with interchangeable candidates.
Gore Vidal
  • The very purpose of a Bill of Rights was to withdraw certain subjects from the vicissitudes of political controversy. One's right to life, liberty and property, to free speech, a free press, freedom of worship and assembly may not be submitted to vote; they depend on no elections.
Robert H. Jackson (1892-1954), U.S. Supreme Court Justice, West Virginia Board of Education vs. Barnette, 1943
  • Chaque élection est une sorte de vente aux enchères par avance de biens à voler.
Henri Louis Mencken
