President Ford was wrong in pardoning Nixon:
we witnessed a President acting above law.
Now, country has experienced another:
Republicans lamenting: excuse their brother.
If veteran son trespassed, he would be charged:
a president is not above my son, you or me.
We pledge allegiance to principle of equal law:
Constitutional ideals of parity sans `cast’ flaw.
Four years America went two steps backward:
we were finally making progress Obama era.
Obama/Bush/Clinton role modeled luminary peace:
Albert Gore/Hillary Clinton exemplary grace legalese.
Authors of The Lincoln Project are modern day heroes:
Philip Zimbado explains in TED The Psychology of Evil.
Opposite wicked like Wesley Autry, Subway Samaritan:
It is time for all Republican congress to ACT American.
