Analysis of Candidates' Election



Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
Everyone should elect George Bush
Instead of John Kerry like it's for you, too!
Democrats should choose
Who is the next president or not.
George Bush says "A leader of democracy
Instead of an adherent is what
I ought to be to beat John Kerry."
