A Grandfather Clause

A Grandfather Clause

Maybe about President should take a pause
Bernie thinks there is a Grandfather Clause
That will enable you to run for President
Who from do we have to receive consent?

For President will some people make a bid?
Odd person out and you they all forbid
And with you they may want to get even
Or are they afraid race they could be leaving.

So what if up I could create quite a stir
Every time when I will stand up for her
Things that were part of what I planned
Give another speech that had been canned.

Oh my goodness and of course great Scott
One more chicken was added to boiling pot
And into Bernie's notes went on an excursion
All we could find was a watered down version.

What a way to go when we live, live, live
And at same time have to give, give, give
Of course when Bernie did discover some doubt
His socialism had created another hand out.

Only reason people have their hands out is 
because there are handouts. Take away
handouts and from them rob and replace
them with a job, job, job.
