The Committee To Re-Elect the President

The Committee To Re-Elect the President By Elton Camp On political matters I take no position But it’s fun to watch those with ambition This Committee is now composed of two And they seem to know just what to do To ensure the president’s election again, They expose his opponents’ list of sin A battle between adulterer and millionaire All their dirty linen in public they do air And available resources they expend In a primary it seems will never end But when a candidate is finally selected His shortcoming will have been detected Imagine the clips that will appear on TV That the entire country will then get to see To them, the president, his hat must doff All while he merrily “laughs his ass off”
