Just my opinion of the direction both the Republican and Democratic debates have gone. It's much more apparent for the Republicans because there are so many of them doing the same thing. Be very careful for whom you vote, the one elected, no matter the party, could easily enhance the discontent we're presently experiencing. Everyone please vote so at least the majority of the country helps determine what happens next..

Master Debaters By Franklin Price 2/15/2015 Master debaters are really great We've seen them on TV Jerking us around a lot Making little sense to me Speaking little of the issues Would rather get down in the mud Want to speak of how they're heroes And the other guy's a dud I question their abilities And if they're qualified They like their chicken baked While the country likes it fried If you think this poem is silly So are debaters on the stage Their child-like interactions Really put me in a rage None of them are qualified Never been the president Never in the military When others signed and went Now they want to be the chief Of the military clan How can they be commander Of what they don't understand? They speak of illegal orders That other presidents have signed They'll sign orders to negate them Doesn't that just blow you mind? Will throw away what they don't like No matter that it's law Can't think of a more foolish thing That I've ever seen or saw Watch closely who you think you like What they say that they can do If the Constitution says they can Then they're the one for you
