Ladies and Gentlemen May I present to you A candidate whose methods Are tried and true A man in whom You'll find no fault That man is The one and only wayoutwalt In a log cabin Born 80 years ago His love of politics Began to show When he got the Babies, left and right To work with the parents And sleep through the night When he was 10 He got school lunch reform By making sure that The hot dogs were always warm And when he was 15 He was called "great" When his parents finally Let him stay out late Computers in every home And smokes in every room These are the needs That very large loom There's so much more That I could tell But there's no room So, let's give a yell! "If with the others You find fault Then cast your vote For wayoutwalt! --------------------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

I would vote for wayoutwalt as White House Jester thats the best I could do.  I'd vote that you'd be the House Poet. |

I'm sorry, I've just about run out of time... Can somebody tell what office he's running for..? Nice Sven... Did he vote for himself..? Dale Writing isn't just something I do, it's something I am. To write of feelings that touch all hearts in some manner is my delight. -Marge Tindal |

I'm sitting here at 1:30 AM watching the election results, and truthfully WOW would have had a good chance, a unique personality, charming and lovable, and he would make a great president.This is a fitting poem Liz |

Sven, I didn't he was old enough to vote let alone run. Besides M&M's haven't been liberated long eonugh to stuff the ballot box. Loved the poem once again spot on.

WOW... most likely candidate to take the popular AND EC vote...the first time 'round, with no re-counts... Anyone know the score yet? I mean, besides Walt? Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

ROFL Wow, when I thought of this idea, I didn't know that it would be taken so well!! Walt, who would have thought that it would work!! You're in buddy!! (that is, if the Palm Beach County, Florida chapter of Passions can learn to read a ballot!!) LOL Latest info is that Bush tried to get Walt to concede, but because of the mess in Florida, Walt has refused. . . and we still hold hopes that he'll get most of the Nader vote! LOL This has been a lot of fun. . .thanks to everyone that replied, especially you inot2B. . . Now there's someone who's example we can follow!! Stuff away my friend. . . a vote for WOW is a vote for the party!!!  ------------------------------------------------------------ That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |
