"of the whole people".................

"Here is the thing you must bear in mind,"  Roosevelt said, clearly irritated.  "I do not represent public opinion:  I represent the public.  There is a world of difference between the two, between the real interests of the public, and the public's opinion of these interests.  I must represent not the existed opinion of the West, but the real interests of the whole people."

-Edmund Morris,  Theodore Rex
