There
are two senators who have had to drop out of the race
Combination
of lousy agendas and lack of funding cost them a place
Booker
will soon join them for the very same reason
With
Klobuchar a casualty who will not make it to the convention season
Don’t
want to speculate on the what senators will join the Gang of Four
Shut
out from their dream pounding on the primary selection door
Assuming
Pelosi gets off her high horse and comes to her senses
Sends
the Impeachment Articles to the Senate for trial to end this limbo nonsense
Then
four senators whose legacy has been battered
As
their dreams of entering the White House have been shattered
Will
each have a rare chance to ape a Ford and with a vote their legacy begin to restore
The
voters’ rejection of divisiveness not one of the senators can ignore
Voters
are fed up with gridlock from fighting and want not less compromise but more
On
both the Senate and the House floors
Like
Ford who put nation ahead of personal goals to a divided nation heal
Time
for these four along with those joining them to ramp down their anti-Trump zeal
Ford
pardoned a president who had committed real crimes
Debate
over trying and jailing him would not have been the best use of our judicial
time.
Did
what was right by granting to A landslide elected Nixon a full pardon
A
first step in causing animosity and divide to soften not harder
Cost
him an election but he did in hindsight what was right
Time
for these senators to vote to acquit to put a path to unity in the nation’s
sights
May
not be a bed of roses but the ad hominem attacks and labels must come to an end
Putting
us back on the desired goal of discussion of policy not imagined behavioral
dangerous trends
