| #13 If it's good enough to be included on the Voyager golden records, you've got to consider this one. We'd have the most kick-ass national anthem of all time. |

| #5 Clem and B won't like it, but neither will the woke and anti-American crowd either. Totally un-PC. If that had been the national anthem, the whole floor to the BLM/hate-American crowd would have never held long ago. |
