For Mike Pence

Mike Pence for President
    always made sense
      to me

  A man of rare conviction
    in this land no longer brave
      and lately not free

  He reserves kisses for his wife
    tithes his income to charity
  At times of crisis, like January 6
    He stands up tall for his country

  As Vice-President he's met and measured
    the likes of Putin, the Mullahs, Kim and Xi
  A man who's balanced budgets as 
    Governor of Indiana a time or three

  A man with a concrete plan for 'Our Country 'Tis of Thee'
    who articulates as well as did John F. Kennedy
  Yet when folks talk about the next President
    they tell me Mike Pence has no chance

   Pity...

Trump mistreated Pence when he was VP, yet Pence kept his loyalty to his office. I think he would make a good president, and I'm a Democrat. :) I also think Trump's star is losing its glitter (fake, of course).

Wow! I'm impressed: A Democrat who feels that Pence would be a good President. You are an exceptional Democrat, Ann! And I'm with you on Trump: 'He gone!' as the baseball announcers say. Thanks for a great comment, Gershon

I think he is misunderstood and poorly treated. Anyone would make a better president than Trump, although, in truth, the contenders other than Pence seem of the same calibre as Trump. A change for the better is what is needed. Take care, Gershon. (Old Duck)

Mr. Pence is truly underappreciated, and wrongly tied to Trump to boot.

My Canadian approach is "anybody other than Trumpy boy: HOW did he ever become prez???" Cheers Happy Jack! XOX
