Robert L. Hinshaw Poet Couplet

Hillary, Billary and Trump

Well, it appears we're gonna have a choice between Hillary and Trump.

Personally, I'd rather see for president Mister Forrest Gump!

At least Forrest has attributes that are attractive to this voter,

You know, stuff like honesty and not a chest-thumping self-promoter!

With Hillary and Billary at the helm, Lord have mercy on this nation,

And likewise with Trump who has a propensity for creating consternation!

Where are the real leaders like Reagan, Truman, Roosevelt and Lincoln?

With Hillary or Trump in office we'll be in one helluva fix I'm a-thinkin'!

Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired

Maurice Rigoler June 12, 2016 at 11:53 AM I'd laugh, Bob, it the predicament to voters were not so pathetic! I will give Mr. Trump this thumbs up, however: He does a great job of lying with a straight-face, but then, so does Mrs. Clinton. What's an intelligent person to do? Thanks for the post. / M Robert L. Hinshaw June 12, 2016 at 2:50 PM You'e right! It ain't no laughing matter. I'll hold my nose and vote for Trump I reckon - anything to keep clinton out of that sacred office. Great to hear from you - Bob h

Hinshaw June 7, 2016 at 2:11 PM Thank you, Jan. We have 2 of the worst candidates ever to run for the office in U.S. history. I think most people will hold their nose and vote for the lesser of 2 evils and I don't know which one is the worst.
