All I Want for Christmas...
Virginia Salter


All I want for Christmas is a president,
a president,
a president;
all I want for Christmas is a president
then, my dear, I’ll be content.

He doesn’t have to be a pearly white,
just try to keep the peace,
for we know he can fight.

He doesn’t have to be a superhuman
or hale from Yale
or another school, man!

He doesn’t have to wear Docker’s or Dior
or know to filibuster
when he has the floor.

Just take the oath and do his best
and from the recounts
just give it a rest!

Not only was it decided, but the other part of my wish...that I would have voted for the loser, a wish I made early on, was also fulfilled.  You see, this way, when things are bad, I can say, well, I didn't vote for him. ;o}

I've not been able to say that for 8 years.
