The Laureate-Candidates! (6/27)
You say you'll save the Middle Class,
and also help the poor,
but you are one with millionaires...
do you but spread manure?

The Laureate-Brexit
So Brits forsake the Euro
without a friendly cheerio...
would rather pay for cards they play
than that which Europeans blow?

The Laureate-You Who'd Lead
When on the bridge and sense foul breeze,
the course you take must all fears ease.
If you would save the Ship of State,
‘tis best that you the tiller seize.
{Then problem solve or mitigate.}

The Laureate-Impasse
The biggest fear for middle class
Is how our pols create morass.
How few the country's problems solved
with pachyderm and ass impasse.
Not invented here the cause
that Red and Blue cannot pass laws.
{The way to have this problem solved
is Red and Blue be both dissolved.}

The Laureate-Gun Laws
When pols accept dark money
to demur the peoples voice,
they better have some money saved
when next the voters make their choice.
{Know your representatives!}

The Laureate-Father's Day
They no longer ride a steed...
yet, are they not the selfsame breed?
Their dragons, jousts and far crusades
are the battles fought to fill each need.

The Laureate-Superdelegates
Why are we asked to vote our choice,
if delegates can mute our voice.
These delegates need not reveal
what dark money asks they foist.
