I would take that to mean that people are "swayed" or "lead" to who the powers that be want elected. That was very apparent with Fox News and Mitt Romney. So, I can agree with FDR on that.
It's also interesting how much Hitler and Mussolini agreed with FDR as well. "Mr. Roosevelt marches straight to his objectives over Congress, lobbies, and the bureaucracy." - Hitler. Sounds like someone else we currently have in the White House.
