Question 30 / 323:  Soon after Barack Obama was elected President of the United States, two leading voices among those who opposed his election made significant statements which would characterize and unify his opponents' reactions to his leadership: "Our top political priority over the next few years should be to deny President Obama a second term" and "I hope he fails." Which of the following statements from the textbook describes the results of what these statements presaged?
A  "An appointed leader who lacks the endorsement of the group may experience challenges
to his or her authority."
B  "If a democratic leader fails to bring the group together, or does not represent the whole
group, subgroups may form, each with an informal leader serving as a spokesperson."
C  "If individual group members or constituent groups feel neglected or ignored, they may
assert that the democratic leader does not represent their interests."
D  "The appointed leader may know little about the topic or content, and group members will
naturally look to the senior member with the most experience for leadership."
E  "[An autocratic leader] resembles a military sergeant more than a politician."
