I saw a photo of Obama the other day with a caption that said, "Describe him in one word." The first word that came to mind was "hero." But then several other words came to mind as well, so I wrote them down. This poem is called Obama.
There is one key word missing, and it's "democrat." Why is it missing? Because it doesn't mean enough to make the cut. It doesn't mean much of anything, really. The other words are far more powerful.
