    Leela: You’ll never pardon anybody because you’ll never get elected president. The voters of Earth aren’t the pea-brained idiots they were back in your time.

    Nixon: Oh, no? Well, listen here, missy. Computers may be twice as fast as they were in 1973 but your average voter is as drunk and stupid as ever. The only one who’s changed is me. I’ve become bitter and, let’s face it, crazy over the years. And once I’m swept into office, I’ll sell our children’s organs to zoos for meat and I’ll go into people’s houses at night and wreck up the place.
