i want
a vote
to hire.
i want
every person's vote,
from the east coast to
the hawaiian islands,
to count.
i want
to vote
for someone
who speaks
softly
with intelligence,
compassion,
understanding,
strength, and
controlled
etiquette.
i want
to choose
from everyone
that has passed
a test to apply.
i don't want parties,
i want candidates
that meet the
requirements
of doing the job.
