Poet-ically Correct Presidential Campaign

~*Marge Tindal*~

A poet for President
What a novel idea !
Now to get the process started
let's campaign for Balladeer !


A poetic platform
would suit us all fine.
Balladeer for PRESIDENT
Everyone throw in a rhyme !


I think that we can do it ...
and bring this man to fame.
For I know that he would bring
Pride to the passionate Balladeer name.  

Enough of the hanky-panky
we've seen for too many years !
When Balladeer brings you to your knees -
he'll do it with poetic tears !


No more cigars in the White House
No Monica's to drop to her knees ...
He'll give her a can of Vienna Sausages
to do with as she would please ! !


None of the fluff of that other stuff ...
No wanna-be broads to pose ...
No sexual harrassment from Paula Jones
with her surgically altered nose !


Our Balladeer will serve
with courtesy, grace and style.
He'll make the very best president -
we've seen in a long, long while !

A poet for a President?
'Tis music to my ears!
An even sweeter sound, I think,
is President Balladeer!

Passion in the Oval Office?
Should I say, "pretty please"?
If it weren't so unoriginal,
I'd get down on my knees!!!

(Okay, Mom, I know, I'm BAD---MARCHING straight to my room again---I just don't know why I do these things...)

Okay, young lady !
Right to your room !
And that's not the Blue Room either !

We are attempting to bring dignity
back to the White House ....
Our presidential candidate cannot
be put upon with such tempting !

Get to work on your campaign posters !
You're not an 'administrative aide' YET !

*Pssssst !
LOVED IT !

Sudhir~
Glad to have all the campaign supporters
we can muster !

The 'rules' have been changed for this
campaign .... any registered POET is entitled to vote.
Location is unimportant ...
We MUST get the right man for the job !
Our Passionate Presidential candidate
depends on the support of us all !

Now - Pun It ! For the fun of it !

*Thank you for your support.

Poet Balladeer for president just suits me fine.
No more honest hearted leader could you find
Some well crafted lines backed with rythum and rhyme
Some words of pure truth that all can define
and poet Balladeer for president gets my vote
anytime.

Wonderful thought Marge....great fun...I wonder how many of the groaners in congress could understand him.

ETHome~

Thank you for your support.
I think the Ole' Balladeer
will bring Congress around to his
way of thinking - POETICALLY !

He'll have them singing the songs
of The Great Balladeer ...
or they'll be OUT
next voting year !

A poet in the White House,
Oh my, oh dear oh 'deer'
Yet...a Passionate Party
Sounds pretty good to my ear!

And I'll campaign all over,
yep, even in the bars,
As long as the national budget
has no line item for cigars!            

Got my vote!!!!  Bonnie

I'm glad you opened the headquarters, Marge!
I'm wearing my PlatForum shoes!
Somebody needed to be in charge
of this Passionate President Muse!

A Poet running for President!
This is indeed quite unConventional !!
The Balladeer has thrown his hat in the ring,
and I somehow believe it's intentional!

I'm happy he finally joined in the race!
His PlatForum is quite en'Deering!
We could do much Verse, Marge! So, let us say grace
and vote for the Balladeer steering!

So, what can I do to help you out?
Make Balladeer Buttons or T-shirts?
I am a designer with some graphic clout --
You want flyers or newspaper inserts?

And if you would like, I can write him a slogan,
a Big Mack to theme the campaign???
Let's fly to have lunch, Marge, we can meet at Logan,
and brainstorm the Balladeer reign!!!

Bonnie~
LOL ! Well, they may have to add Vienna Sausage and SPAM !
But, hey .... that's A-okay with me ! !
Thanks for the wonderful reply !


Doreen~
A cute, cute, cute reply !
Well, Balladeer already has his own button -
So work on that slogan !
We'll get our Balladeer elected yet !

He needs to be prodded to choose his running mate.
I hear that LongJohn is under consideration
and possibly Toe !  

Wow ! What possibilities !

MY! What an outpouring of support here!!! Ok! Let's get this bandwagon rolling!

er, MArge, let's not be too quick to list the things I don't want to do in the Oval Office, ok? She didn't mean it, serenity. Serenity???

NO! Marge, you're right! Honesty, integrity, dignity and all of those other things we haven't seen for 8 years. Enough of this Ovalation! Enough of a chick in every pot and pot in every chick! The Passion Poets are going to Washington!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Balladeer~
Having you clear your mind of thoughts impure-
is so important to our plan.
In the White House we will finally get
An HONEST man !

Denise~
Well, he IS cute !
But you must vote the platform,
not your desires !
(but we could include 'cute')


Serenity~
My child, my child -
I misunderstood.
Now I can see
that prayer was what brought you
to your knees !
Come out, my dear.
