A Debate For the Ages

Democratic front-runners take the stage
   All fired up with Progressive rage
Medicare for All, a higher minimum wage
   ~ The audience wonders about their age



  Ages as of Election Day 2020:
  Bernie Sanders     - 79
  Joe Biden             - 77
  Elizabeth Warren  - 71

Politics, they all throw sticks yet none are truthful I pick the one who is useful, no matter Democrat or Republican I want the one who is truthful. The news only tells lies so Americans needs spies, who shall we pick? Republican or old Saint Nick? I choose Christmas over them all their presents are way to small.

The truth is a rare commodity. It's like gold, a precious metal... But politics, of course, isn't about truth; never was. Show me a politician who tells the truth all the time, and I'll show you a politician who's never been elected... At any rate, these people aren't for me either. I've stopped voting in national elections, as I can't hold my nose long enough to get through the ballot. LOL. Best wishes, gw
