"why you agree with his content"
Read my post again before you jump to any conclusion. I wrote, I have no problem with the content and that should not be construed as me agreeing with the content. Do you understand? I hope this is not a thick skull problem?

I don't understand why you agree with his content but then ignore the content altogether and chose to mock his style. Content is always more important than style when on the subject of our country. We don't need more great poets. There are lots of great poets who are cowards, never taking on relevant subjects.
He can call himself anything he wants.
Blind supporters of AL turn a blind eye to murder, extortion and violence - and they still call themselves democrats.
