Our Country's Unity

This year we face a crossroads in our country
An important choice we must make to keep our democracy.
Do we continue to chose candidates from the standard parties,
Or do we follow the path of another young man and follow
His We The People party.

Forget for a moment his last name
Or the memories if those in his family before him
Listen to his words, his commitment, his passion and tell me you
Don’t feel he is the only choice to bind  our country 
Step back and review the two parties and what they stand for
Remember the terms of the former two men
And in good faith ask yourself do you want to place the fate of this country in their hands again
Maybe it’s tine for  that third party to come alive
It’s a vote to unify not divide
A vote  that will bring back  our country’s unity
 
One should not forget the words of a great man who stood on a battlefield that November day 
He urged us to bind together in unity
And the government for the people prevail then as well as today

Thank you for your comment. Though it's not a political view or I don't think so but more as I see it as looking for the answer to bring us all back on the same page.
