Victoria C. Woodhull: “But there is another monopoly of which I must speak—I mean the monopoly of money itself.”

I have deliberately and of my own accord placed myself before the people as a candidate for the Presidency of the United States, and having the means, courage, energy and strength necessary for the race, intend to contest it to the close.

To do so carries no conviction nor prophetic knowledge of what must be next, as a necessary sequence.

It will only be considered as a means to other and higher ends.

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