In a republic this rule ought to be observed: that the majority should not have the predominant power.
It's a lot easier to negotiate and be skillful from the majority. I want Paul Ryan negotiating with us. I don't want to have to negotiate with Paul Ryan.
I served 14 years in the state legislature and served in both the minority and majority.
For decades, Saddam and his Sunni minority had imposed their will on Iraq, carrying on a 14-century tradition of Sunnis controlling Mesopotamia despite a Shiite majority.
I don't see that my majority opinions are going to be undone.
The minority yields to the majority!
