Opinions of Two Controversial Minds

Listen with a sharp perception, and if you disagree, put your opinion on hold, until I have finished speaking; don't point out my stubbornness on intention, and make me feel I'm really so old... in a land where expressions are not restricted, and words are spoken with a freedom so rampant: take in consideration what I'm saying! And this debate between two controversial minds, is being attended by an audience of different ages; let them decide who can make that change in society and be elected to the Presidency of the wealthiest Country! I admire the boldness in your speech, the great effort you put into each; and if they choose you, " I'll be glad to honor that... and will they prefer me over you: I'll happily shout to that! " They have been exposing our most horrible mistakes as we shamelessly and viciously have attacked each other, shouting and ensuing rage in front of a Nation much in dire; even the clowns in the circus have a reason to deride, to imitate us for our insulting and inappropriate jokes: when their Nation is engaged in war, and facing turmoil, and while the impatient troops are anxious to come home... by air and by sea and be safe in their impregnable fortress! Our fateful day is only days away and our supporters cheer, on November 4, 2008...whatever happens, whoever is chosen by sunrise: let's not hold every grudge, but quickly forget those words thrown at each other; they need us, and they'll be happy to see one of us in sheer glee... our hands are of a different color, but we almost fight for the same cause: let's shake them in a friendly gesture and ask God for guidance! Yes, our people we'll keep the peace and the Country will prosper indeed... while the triumphant trumpets will claim this victory across our jubilant Land! Copyright 2008 by Andrew Crisci
