Jose can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What we so fretfully hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Open borders under bright stars, through the perilous flight
For Minuteman we watched, as we were stealthily creeping?
The lack of red flares, nor star shells bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that the politicians don’t care  
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of LARASA and over the bones of the brave?

I've determined that the problem is we elect politicians that only care about their political careers, and we should be electing leaders, who have the ability to come up with solutions to our problems...James

Hi

Yes it is sad that it should be so.
