Below is an encoded quote from one of our favorite great Americans. The code is a simple, all capital, letter substitution - like the Cryptoquote in the newspaper. No numbers are used.
It's the result of a JAVA program I wrote, and I'll be happy to do more if there's an interest.
If you need a hint, I'll post one.

It’s Andrew Cuomo obliterating his presidential chances......telling us America isnt that great.
I’ll bet Brian Williams already decoded it.

Psssst, the third word has an extraneous letter 'W' in it. . . it's misspelled.
in white (drag your cursor between the quotation marks to read my answer): "The most terrify(?)ing words in the English language are: Im from the government and I'm here to help youRonald Reagan"
“Don’t forget to drink your Ovaltine”
Me, too — hate puzzles and magic. Add parades and circuses.
Good job. I just copied the quote from Brainyquotes; it looks right:

“...replaced by itself...”
The pseudo-random coding allows for this chance; in this case it’s 1 in 26.
