What you always do before you make a decision is consult. The best public policy is made when you are listening to people who are going to be impacted. Then, once policy is determined, you call on them to help you sell it.

  • -- Elizabeth Dole 伊丽莎白·多尔

在做决定之前,你通常做的是咨询。最好的公共政策是当你倾听那些将要受到影响的人的意见时制定的。然后,一旦政策确定下来,你就会要求他们帮助你推销它。
