Speaking of Campaign Theme Songs For Bernie: Here it Is

[swilton]

The backs of his campaign shirts say, "Join the Political Revolution".

[Va Lefty]

1. Good choice but I think this is better

[LWolf]

3. I like them both.

[DirtyHippyBastard]

4. good one

This one would work , too.

[RoccoR5955]

6. It's already been at Bernie's rally in Burlington.

Oh yeah, they sang it at Obama's inauguration too.
Listen to the last three verses. They are the most important ones!

[DirtyHippyBastard]

2. I believe that this song

has a lot to do with me being a liberal today. Hearing it was the first time I remember noticing that a song was political, and that I agreed with the message. I was 6.

5. If we want to appeal to younger voters then

we need better theme songs!

Something for the alt-country folks might be Steve Earls The Revolution Starts Now.

Something for the hip hop generation would be 2Pac Changes. I particularly think this line is apropos - "instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs so the police can bother me". Ain't that the truth!

Let's think of more especially from the 1980's forward so we target all demographics for Sanders' campaign.

[Jefferson23]

12. yes

[LiberalElite]

20. This aging Beatlemaniac agrees w/you-

Probably anything after Madonna circa 1985 is totally unknown to me but - I'm voting for Bernie no matter what the theme song is. Gotta get the younger folks to show up and vote for him.

Plus, I'm afraid of giving the GOPTP, MSM and TPTB (a/k/a Democratic Party elites) another reason to write him off.

Alternatively, perhaps something by Pete Seeger would be a good, truly "timeless" choice.

[Paka]

7. They're all good.

Why pick just one? I favor almost anything by Pete Seger.

[LuvLoogie]

8. here ya go

[wendylaroux]

9. The Who

[SoapBox]

10. O...M...G!

They're all good but I just had, top to bottom goose bumps, imagining this being played in Staples Center in Los Angeles.

We won't get fooled again!

[wendylaroux]

17. This would get the people pumped

[Snotcicles]

21. I think this one would get the crowd going too.

[Enthusiast]

18. +1 an entire shit load.

[Cheese Sandwich]

11. Come on now you know you want Tracy Chapman

Talkin' Bout A Revolution

This song practically sounds like it was written for #Bernie2016

[TM99]

13. Great song!

I got to see Tracy in Nashua back in the early 1990's. Johnny Clegg & Savuka opened for her. That was an amazing revolutionary concert!

[TM99]

15. Can't remember exactly where.

It was the only time I visited Nashua. I was doing graduate work in New Haven, the artist I was dating at the time got us tickets, and we went up for the weekend.

[Cheese Sandwich]

16. Sounds like a great fun experience.

Yes good song

[swilton]

19. That's a good one also!

Now that we have the sound-track for Sanders' victory celebration established - we need to get to work on winning the primaries and GE......

[olddots]

22. I want Randy Newman to write the campaign song for Bernie

It would be amazing .

[Snotcicles]

23. +1
