The Best Possible Candidate For President

The Best Possible Candidate for President

By Elton Camp

The Democrats know exactly who their man will be
Although what the Republicans will do remains to see

But a simple fact that both them may well need to face
Neither of them has put the best possible one in the race

There is one who has known both poverty and riches 
And what can come to one who gets in and pitches

And to all types of people this one is able to relate
And few, if any, hold any prejudice of any hate

This candidate is a person neither too young or old
And makes own decisions, not doing as is told

Another qualification is a history of job creation
That has helped many people throughout the nation

Not a single hint of scandal has there ever been
Though the press has watched since way back when

The original mate has never, ever been dumped
So that someone younger then can be humped 

This person’s intelligence is extremely high 
Giving judgment as to the right things to try

Foreign heads of countries absolutely wouldn’t dare
To try to deceive one who is proven honest and fair

The image of the USA would dramatically rise 
If this person should gain the presidential prize

And just who is this fabulous person you say?
Just take a close look down Tennessee way

There is one who has well earned her fame
Find out that Miss Dolly Parton is her name

(I’m pretty sure she isn’t interested in being president, but she’s a person I honestly admire.  As she says, she isn’t blonde and she isn’t dumb.)
