Primal Leap Frog

The spectacle of a substantial number of states jockeying for position in the Presidential Primary Derby puts one in mind of the first day of kindergarten when the most aggressive five-year-olds compete to be first in line for recess. [That is if the school still has a recess where children actually go out into a play yard and play, and the school is not locked down].

William's Whimsical Words:

The spectacle would be amusing until one stops to consider that on a national level the same lack of maturity is evident, and results in war, with the attendant loss of life and limb.
