You know, the truth is this: it is a leader's job to challenge the status quo. And when you do, you make enemies.

The highest calling of leadership is to challenge the status quo and unlock the potential of others. We need a leader who will lead the resurgence of this great nation and unlock its potential once again.

Status quo, you know, is Latin for 'the mess we're in'.

The manager accepts the status quo; the leader challenges it.

The status quo sucks.

The status quo is simply unacceptable.
