Our American life

Talking about Candidate number one, we couldn't stop laughing. We laughed until there were tears in our eyes. Candidate number one was the one leading the polls, the one everyone said had no chance just months ago, the one who had no plan other than everything was wrong and he would make it right so that the country could be great again.

We laughed a long time, but people like us can only laugh for so long at one thing, so we began laughing at Candidate number two, the one who promised revolution. We both liked Candidate number two much more then we liked Candidate number one--Candidate number two was much closer to our own political leanings than Candidate number one--but Candidate's promise of a revolution made us laugh harder and longer than we laughed at Candidate number one's superficial inanities and his shocking poll numbers.

Revolution? Really? Did Candidate number two truly think about what he was saying when he used the word, "revolution"? Certainly it would be bloody, given the number of weapons now in the hands of both law-enforcement and the general public.

We laughed and laughed at the idea of what a revolution would look like now in America, how, when the time came for it, the revolutionaries would be paid off in pizza and marijuana.
