This poem is about President Obama. It speaks of his triumphs thus far.
World famous runners will tell you the first rule of track:
Which is that is you can’t win a race if you’re looking back.
You can ‘t win a race if you are not focused and disciplined,
Just as in the game of life you can’t get to Heaven if you continue to sin.
You can’t throw rocks and dirt on others and then hide your hands,
You can’t go to a ball game and boo both teams and remain in the stands.
You can’t win a race if you don’t sweep around your own front door,
You can’t win a race if you are always finger pointing and taking score.
Just take a note from President Obama’s 2008 campaign,
You will see that he never looked back and refrained,
From dousing his opponents with equal doses of venom,
He just relied on the intelligence and talent within him.
He didn’t wince when they called him a rock star and inexperienced,
That is why they have been calling him commander in chief ever since!
You can't win a race by playing the race card,
You can't win a race by being a cartoon drawing retard!
So my friends if you have learned anything today:
It is that you certainly can’t win a race you are looking back.
World famous runners will tell you that it’s the first rule of track.
