A good poem to help people decide on a candidate |
|
This is one of Natasha's poems. It contains a lot of insight.
DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CANDIDATE STANDS?
By Natasha H. (age 12)
Do you know where your candidate stands Or know anything about his plans? Is he mankind’s very best friend Or the beginning of the end?
Do you know where your candidate stands Or will you vote where the coin toss lands? Do freedom and justice guide your way Or do you follow the crowd today?
Do you care what issues are at stake Or what kind of future he could make? Do you want a candidate with a plan Or a scam from a popular man?
Want a man who can stop the decline Or one who stole his popular line? Want a man who only tells it true Or who gets credit where none is due?
Do you prefer health care for all Or to pay for missiles that may fall? Are fairness and justice your intent Or Executions of the innocent?
Should the WTO get the boot Or crooked execs get all the loot? Should Americans keep on working Or lose their jobs to children slaving?
Do you want a healthy, living planet Or life placed second to the budget? Should special interests rule the day Or should public interest have a say?
Do you want the future to be bright? Will you check out which candidate’s right? America’s future will be rich If the winner is Kucinich.

should be able to vote twice. She, at 12, is much smarter than many tow or three times her age.

2. Natasha's latest article is at the top of Democrats.com today. |

Though they mistyped her age (11 instead of 12), that's kind of impressive.
