- Dr. Grace Hart: In America we have democracy. Our president is a person our people have all chosen, an assurance that only the finest and most qualified man will lead, not a wealthy tyrant who cares for nothing but himself.
- Watson: But you have the electoral college, which surely would prevent some trumped-up charlatan from gainingpower.
- Dr. Grace Hart: Not always, unfortunately.
- Holmes: It would be great to have a strong businessman.
- Watson: But a showman as well. I love a good show.
- Holmes: America. We gave you your freedom and now look what you've done with it.”
