Letter "A" » acclimation
«PRESIDENT, n. The leading figure in a small group of men of whom --and of whom only --it is positively known that immense numbers of their countrymen did not want any of them for President.If that's an honor surely 'tis a greater To have been a simple and undamned spectator. Behold in me a man of mark and note Whom no elector e'er denied a vote! -- An undiscredited, unhooted gent Who might, for all we know, be President By acclimation. Cheer, ye varlets, cheer -- I'm passing with a wide and open ear! --Jonathan Fomry»
