Quote from Greg in Everybody Hates Elections

Adult Chris: [v.o.] I thought running for class president would make me more popular, change my life at Corleone, but the more I campaigned, the more I just wanted to beat Caruso by any means necessary.
Greg: Dude, I've got bad news. The entire fourth period English class is going to vote for Caruso.
Chris: All of 'em?
Greg: Yeah. He said if they don't vote for him, he was going to kick the lit out of them.
Chris: I thought having DiPaolo run with me would help me.
Greg: It would probably help more if he threatened to knock somebody's teeth out.
