Haiku Friday - A President

1338959961_a93cf33414_o4.jpg


I really don't want

a President who is cool

or could be my friend


Presidents should be

able to quote policy

brilliant, better


People liked W.

Cause they thought they could drink beer

with the normal guy


I hate that so much

Who cares about normal as

economy fails



Extraordinary

That's someone who should be Prez

Extraordinary


Don't represent me

Do what's best for the country

all the citizens

I still say he is better than the alternatives would've been. But, I do wish ALL politicians cared less about being reelected & did what was right for the country. Like scrapping social security & not just trying quick fixes.

You know, I've been thinking (which usually spells trouble) and I came to the conclusion that the US needs an average joe president. Maybe even a below average joe. Someone who had been through the rigors of the system. Someone who can truly relate to what most of us have gone thru. Fact is, 99% of the people who get elected are rich and have been rich for the majority of their lives. How do they know what struggles we as a people really face???

Ok...that does it....I'm running for President next term. I am not even joking.
