Ready For Their First Close-Up.
There is a debate tonight featuring eight (yep, eight) candidates for the 44th President of the United Staets. This quote from the ultimate Democrat (and the last non-govenor to be elected POTUS) really puts a song in my heart. I need to memorize it. And so do these eight candidates. Any ideas on who will take the debate?

In 1844, the Democrats were split
The three nominees for the presidential candidate
Were Martin Van Buren, a former president and an abolitionist
James Buchanan, a moderate
Lewis Cass, a general and expansionist
From Nashville came a dark horse riding up
He was James K. Polk, Napoleon of the Stump
Austere, severe, he held few people dear
His oratory filled his foes with fear
The factions soon agreed
He's just the man we need
To bring about victory
Fulfill our manifest destiny
And annex the land the Mexicans command
And when the vote was cast the winner was
Mister James K. Polk, Napoleon of the Stump
In four short years he met his every goal
He seized the whole southwest from Mexico
Made sure the tarriffs fell
And made the English sell the Oregon territory
He built an independent treasury
Having done all this he sought no second term
But precious few have mourned the passing of
Mister James K. Polk, our eleventh president
Young Hickory, Napoleon of the Stump
Kennedy was the real deal. Sadly most liberals today lost the sense of true idealism and replaced it with a sense of entitlement and victimhood. Of course Republicans are hardly much better, if not in fact worse.
