I am a registered Democrat but Vote for Republican in the up coming election. The current Democratic leadership the country is economically, job situation, immigration and safety and security is in turmoil. It is a shame to continue to vote for Democratic tickets.

Lyrics:
„ KAMALA HARRIS“ by STUART
You´re fighting for our values
You´ve got Jamaican riddim
and Indian wisdom
You grab the duck by his wings
You´ll bring us joy and liberty
You know the crooks
You know the liars
You know the crook with his golden tower
He stands for darkness and brutality
You stand for democracy
You´ve got Jamaican riddim
and Indian wisdom
You´ve got the all-American vision
You´re gonna make it!
