I knew a person that worked for JFK…

Believe it or not, tis up to you...


Poem Artwork

 

Just another campaign volunteer,

Around the country with JFK he stayed near,

A lot of crosstalk he did actually hear,

Most he kept to himself thinking it national security…

 

But there WAS one thing he did to me teach,

He actually drilled it into me whenever I was in his reach,

A conversation between JFK, RFK & their dad,

Everything with regards the election they did beforehand know,

JFK was to win, no matter what the results did show…

 

Supposedly the story was, before each election the winner already knew,

That he would be elected, the loser knew too,

If this was the case, why then vote at all,

Though there is no hard evidence that this was the case,

I heard it from somebody close, before his maker he did face…

Well it is quite possible for usually the candidate with the most money behind him or with him is the one that carries into the campaign the most power... The exception perhaps beloved American movie stars. LOL

You never heard of that pork-barrel wheeling and dealings around Chicago Dock's filled of smoke rooms? the only difference is that the Cohiba's cigars from Cuba are forbidden by the no-no-smoking laws of today.
The politicos have switched to heavy drinking and snorting coke.
But, everything is business as usual.

Having worked for the government for nearly 30 years, nothing surprises me, anything is possible, and there are thousands of secrets, hidden deep within government vaults, that most will never know.

Ask not what your country can do for you...Wow, I did know there was a lot of hanky panky stuff going on with JFK and the mofia but I never heard that it was a fixed election. Sure makes you think about getting up early and standing in line for hours to cast that vote that doesn't make any difference, doesn't it? Great thought provoking write Ed, Love, Bonnie

Problem is, Ed, people have forgotten government by the people, for the people. It's all up to superdelegates and electoral colleges now, who wins, who doesn't: BUT: if you don't vote, have no right to complain! LOL Well done, thought provoking!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
