...governments with corruption, inefficiency and leftward drift. A master of demogogic oratory, he shuns all formal political parties and organizations and goes straight to the people, depending upon sheer mass appeal "Give me a balcony," he once boasted, "and I could be elected President anywhere." He does not even bother to offer voters a program "Why should I?" he asked at one campaign rally. "What this country needs is a government of action...

The proposed expansion of Overseer representation would require an act by the Massachusetts General Court, and it is inconceivable that any Massachusetts legislature would favor handing the review...
