“Nobody ever lost a dollar by underestimating the taste of the American public.”
P.T. Barnum (1810–1891) American showman and businessman
“Do not underestimate us Americans.”
Post-Presidency, DNC address (2004)
Context: I am not discouraged. I really am not. I do not despair for our country. I never do. I believe tonight, as I always have, that the essential decency and compassion and common sense of the American people will prevail.
And so I say to you and to others around the world, whether they wish us well or ill: Do not underestimate us Americans.
