q1) "As long as these big corporations have a good crony capitalist in the White House, they can rely on DC to bail them out until the whole system goes bankrupt, which, I am afraid, is not very far off." Who said it?

q2) Who said - "At this point I don't see any difference between George Bush and Obama. The middle class is a lot worse than when Obama was elected"?

q3) "I have children and grandchildren, and I don't want them to grow up in this world. I want the world to change. It can be done." Who said it?

q4) Who said: "I'm just saying this feels an awful a lot like the 60s or 70s when I was a kid. I mean, you have the same feeling out here that government and nation have parted paths and the people will bring government back to the nation"?

q5) "We got sold out! Banks got bailed out!" Where can this chant be heard?

q6) "You leave your own country and you expect things to be better in America, a step or two up from what you left back home. And then there's this rude awakening: America is just not what it used to be." Who said this?

q7) "Republicans, Democrats and independents are stepping up and demanding we put our fiscal house in order. I think the overriding message after years of borrowing, spending and bailouts is enough is enough." Who said it? Republican or Democrat?
