As the father of a little girl, her song, “My Father’s Daughter,” inspires me

/\

My favorite part of our national anthem at public functions

Is the sound of union of Americans

It gives me chills
and often brings a tear to my eyes

I’m glad you enjoy her songs,,,

,, the anthem is not ‘ her’ song

it’s America’s.

What she did amounts to theft.

It was myopic
It was selfish
It was self centered

It was abuse to thousands of Americans

It was deplorable

It
Was
Theft.

I wish we had America the Beautiful as our anthem. It was written during a cross country trip by an American about how beautiful America is. Our current anthem was not written in America, the lyrics yes, but the melody is a British drinking song.
