Blank For President



A man or woman in the prime of life 
who values her husband or he his wife.
A person of strength with a disciplined mind,
One who is courageous, respectful, and kind. 

They have great intellect but do not boast.
They love God,their country, and family the most. 
The hardships and worries of every citizen
Are important and worthy of their attention.

Great honor and integrity they will possess, 
And view the poor and needy with tenderness.
Not slothful or selfish, not weak or uncaring,
Our future and reputation aware that they carry.

Believing everyone has the right to make their own choices,
 letting every person speak up, and hearing their voices.
A person of faith but not hypocritical,
They respect opinions, your faith they won't ridicule.

Not racist, not sexist, no contempt for disabled,
Believing all equal, all sit at round tables.
With strength and righteous anger for our enemies,
But able to compromise and all people please.

As much as I wish it, this can't be real, what a joke!
But if they were actual, they'd sure have my vote!

So true. It used to be the very best of us would lead. Note it seems to be the most infamous and outrageous. Thanks for coming by GW! Xo P.s. I guess we just need to keep praying and remember we are ruled by a King... the King of Kings as a matter of fact! :) <3
