American Poet Laureate throws his support behind Stephen Colbert

No, not Donald Hall ....

THE American Poet Laureate, Robert Frost, signs the petition in support of Stephen's candidacy:

2782.Robert Frost
In an exclusive (must cite Stephen Colbert for President of the United States), Frost added in a missive scrawled upon faded parchment::

Stopping By A Voting Booth On A Snowy Evening
Whose nation this is I think I know.
On Comedy Central is his show;
He will not see us voting here
To help a nation him to follow.
The precinct watcher must think it queer
To vote without a platform clear
Except a thirst for truth to slake
And end the rampage of the BEAR.
She gives her voter rolls a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the hum
Of vote machines now on the take.
The polls are lovely, dark and bare.
It's time our nation to repair,
And to elect Stephen Colbert,
And to elect Stephen Colbert.
