Victoria C. Woodhull: “As for issues and policies, both parties absolutely lack them.”

The tendencies of government from earliest historic time have persistently been to universal sway.

It is in the people themselves, and in the fundamental principles upon which society is built, and those which the people allow government to be administered upon.

It is this species of corruption that is becoming a stench in the nostrils of all those whose patriotism is more than pocket deep.

Or will they sell their birthright for less than a “mess of pottage?” Is it necessary that some great calamity come before an awakening to the reality of the condition will occur?
