The GOP Candidates – In Haiku
With all of the Republicans running for President of the United States this year, it is sometimes hard to tell one from another, especially when it comes to the issues. Which GOP Candidates will you vote for? What do they stand for? You could listen to the news twenty-four hours a day and still be confused. If only there was a way to put everything into a short, seventeen-syllable summary...Oh wait, there is always Haiku! Haiku is a type of Japanese poem you might remember from school. It consists of three lines with a set number of syllables. The first and third lines each contain five syllables, while the middle line has seven.
