The wisdom of Abraham Lincoln, with revisions

I rise to ask permission to revise and extend famous remarks made by Abraham Lincoln, the former president most admired by President-for-the-time-being Barack Obama:

“You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time...In truth, however, all of this is of no consequence because you only need to fool a majority of the people one time."
