Mini-Monarchies

Out of the bushes comes a president
We go back to the bushes for another
Third time we just ask him to stay
For we are a Mini-Monarchy

Blithely Clinton sits as president
He stays on the White House throne
Once more, 'cause we can't find better
In three hundred million people
Hence Mrs. Clinton must rule the US
That's because this is a Mini-Monarchy

There's a Mini like that in North Korea
Syria has an inherited presidency
Elected to stay in the Family
Burma shave off its democracy
Into a one-man Mini-Monrachy

Commentary:
second line from bottom, 'shave' should be 'shaved'. Comments welcome in this election season = Ben

Interesting, maybe a little esoteric for me, but unique. I am pulling for Obama and am also tired of the Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton dynasty.
