We the People must care more when we cast our votes; but we must cast them. It is our duty. We are supposed to be represented by those in government, not ruled by them.
Ten Ten Twenty Twenty Politics By Franklin Price 10/10/2020 The date is ten ten twenty-twenty A few days left to raise the money To fill the seats in Washington To watch the races is not fun It's not about the one who's best To fill each seat for every test But who can take opponents down By spreading filth and mud around The monies raised could save the sick Instead it funds some party's pick It puts some owing one in place That's how it's done; a big disgrace Truth and facts are often damned Our Media accounts are spammed With how bad opponents are We wonder how they got this far The White House worst, and who is in it Then close behind, the House and Senate For We the People, not much chance, To be invited to the dance Incumbent records tell no lies Of who to praise, and who despise Research the rookie ones also To tell which way that you should go If you only listen to The campaign ads that come at you And make your choice by what they say Again you'll get, what's here today A Washington that doesn't care Where power rules and isn't fair Where left and right don't cross the line As for myself, that isn't fine Not matter what, please cast your vote. If your choice wins, then you may gloat We're in it, only, for the ride If we only vote for those inside
