A Two-Legged Or a Four-legged Contender
The first Tuesday in November is much like the first Saturday in May.
One is a run for the White House and the latter is of course is the run for the roses.
The only difference is that the field of two candidates multiplies into a field of twenty thoroughbreds.
Although, they all pound the ground flinging dirt high into the air in order to be the first one to cross the finish line.
After which, the winners receive the perks and obligations that goes along with his just due.
After repeating once again what made them a winner in the first place, they serve their time.
Then, they retire in which one goes on million dollar speaking engagements while the other one goes straight to a million dollar breeding farm.
It is the rich history that makes both of these events so memorable and isn't it remarkable that they both share the power of the nomination in order to get to where they need to be in the first place.
Either, by winning preliminary votes in states or just by streaking in front of some really tough four-legged contenders.
Only a few times have females of both species been able to compete against the males in both the race to become the first female leader of the highest office in the land or the first female horse to have the pleasure of a wreath of roses dangling around her high-bred neck.
In either case, they lose because they don't have the power of the males stronger flex of his well-toned athletic muscles or maybe the whip crackling against her neck is better left to being a second in command or just running against the other fillies competing in the Oaks the Friday afternoon before main event the next day.
In just a few more weeks, excitement prevails to one winner where on a cold January day he takes a presidential oath of office to serve his country to the best of his ability.
In the same sense, three months from January, a new four-legged contender canters from the barn area onto a dirt track where he also begins his chance to prove to skeptics that he has the power to change the course of history.
One of them is to win the Triple Crown and for the other one the chance to win at being re-elected.
