Debate Ii

Something strange that has occurred, a GOP debate
instead of questions on our Country, CNN pushed hate
Their questions shielded DNC, left out the main concerns
with Moderators in control, the USA still burns

Their motto is "I Gotcha", they use it every time
hard to think it's not set up, by "Big Guns" with the dime
Pretending, feigning innocence, the questions deadly aimed
knock them out from on the "top", Jeb's waiting to be named

Wall street has a lot at stake, can't throw it all away
they need someone that they can guide, each and every day
Boost him up?  They'll find a way, to really tweak the polls
have a method, make you think, that is one of their goals

Very worried, the "Top Three", have not been bought or paid
can't figure how to get to them, or how they can be swayed
Decent people everywhere, are praying day and night
maybe this will be the time, America gets it right.....
