There are occasionally talks of replacing The Star Spangled Banner as the national anthem. If this were to happen, what would you opt to replace it with?

I for one think it would be pretty dope to bring back Hail Columbia.

Bonus Points: If you pick Hail Columbia, what would you make the new VP anthem?

I'll take America the Beautiful.

Also My Country Tis of Thee is the worst option and easily the worst "American" patriotic song.

And why's that

Also could someone explain the Manifest Destiny innuendos in ATB? I'm not seeing it.

One of my most passionate political positions is that the national anthem should be the Battle Hymn of the Republic.

     I'm heartened by the support for Battle Hymn of the Republic, though if it ever became a serious possibility I suspect that the extremely Christian bent of the lyrics would become a sticking point.

We could always use the original lyrics. That might piss off the opposite group of people, though.

Wait I thought there was only one set of lyrics
