I think I just read the winner of the Nice U.S. Political Poem contest. You hit the nail on the head with your words. Politicians seem to have forgotten they work for We the People. Very nice job. Good luck in the contest.

I like your entry for the "nice political" contest. I found it difficult, if not ludicrous to combine the two words, but I gave it a try, also.
Yours, I feel, is more what Tom had in mind.
At any rate. Very nice! well said.

hello...I wish you luck in this contest. i am not American, though I follow the news, and I know the political system.
You did a good job here keeping to the rules...though I can fell a certain 'side' to it.
I could not enter the contest...I had nothing positive to say about the GOP...well except for Arnold...he rocks.

    I'm not going to lie....it was tough finding good things to say, especially nowadays with politics being like they are. Thanks so much for reading my poem. :)

This poem truly lives up to the contest mission, since it is not angry or spiteful, as most political rhetoric tends to be. I love the image you chose to complement the clever words. It also has a nice rhythm.

This is very good, and so far is precisely what this contest was intended for. You looked at both sides and listed positive things they both stand for. There is no hint of bias or negativity.

Well done.

You present a balanced view, as the contest requires. It is refreshing to see an argument that considers both sides of the coin. It is also interesting to me that the words democracy and republicanism both essentially mean the same thing - government by the people, for the people, through elected representatives. The current polarisation into opposites is a mystery to me.

    As it is to me as well. I just want things to settle down and have the politicians to get back to the peoples business. Thank you for reading my poem. :)

A wise write and at last someone here who understands the principles of each party! It is not about the personality of the leader, but about the facts behind the policies each party uphold, I fear for the safety of America and their economy under the democratic rule, but that is just my opinion, a fine informative write, love Dolly x

Considering that this contest has the greatest number of rules I've ever seen you did pretty well in playing nice with politics. I think you're competitive in this contest...good job. Best of luck.

    A lot of rules and quite a challenge. It didn't come easy, to extoll the virtues of the opposing political party, but I bit the bullet. Thanks so much for reading my poem. :)
