Please put all of your insights into one single thread and do not ever post a thread again. All I ask is that we don't have 800 threads a day about emo music/strippers/nader being the antichrist/the bradley effect.

That idea makes absolutely no sense.

I like it.

Awesome, but it would be better if the song lyrics were changed to "Grandpa Got Run Over By A Crazed Mob of Wal-Mart Shoppers (While Working As A Greeter In Order To Pay For His December Supply of Prescription Drugs)"

Then it would be uniquely American.

"The Sounds of Silence" - Simon and Garfunkel

That would be a good national anthem

Wow, this was an embarrassing poll to make. The Internationale is a terrible song.

Other: either the Battle Hymn of the Republic, or the Battle Cry of Freedom.

It's funny, even as a massive secularist, I'd rather have either America the Beautiful or the Battle Hymn of the Republic as our national anthem.

What's wrong with The Star Spangled Banner? It's not my favorite, but it's very solid as far as anthems go.

Battle Hymn, with all its lyrics, is absolutely amazing. As a national anthem, it carries certain implications, however (not ones that I necessarily have a problem with).
