President Obama Has a Dream

President Obama Has a Dream

By Elton Camp

President Obama is dreaming about the election
And the candidate who’d exceed his expectation

How wonderful that woman from Alaska would be
No one could possibly be as easy to defeat as she

Or maybe a black man who Lybia can’t identify
And against whom women, bad charges, will try

Perhaps even a man from out of the old West
Especially if his memory isn’t quite the best

Or one who to an unpopular church does belong
And seems to be willing to sing about any song

Could it be a grouchy, old Libertarian grandpaw
Who hates about every government action he saw

Dreams of an adulterous, lobbying, fanatical leech
Whose job qualifications would be easy to impeach

His dream is relaxing and makes him feel content
Knowing he is going to serve again as president

hahaha, this one made me laugh. All the candidates seem to suck, that is sure true. Mitt is in my unpopular church. I think he has the best chance of the motley Republican crew but good lord, what will become of the poor? I enjoyed this alot. (voted for Obama but not really happy with anything these days!!)
