Things like this are what we have to look forward to when Herman Cain is president....

Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain said Sunday that if elected, he would “change the mood” of “Hail to the Chief” by adding a gospel vibe.

“It’s traditional and that’s all well and good, but I happen to believe there comes a time when you need to change the mood of it just a little bit, not drastically,” Cain told Fox News’ Chris Wallace. “It’s kind of like in marketing. Periodically, companies that have been successful at branding might modify their logos just a little bit to give it a fresher look. I think ‘Hail to the Chief’ needs a little bit fresher sound.”

“Hip hop?” Wallace asked.

“I might put some gospel beats into ‘Hail to the Chief,’ OK?” Cain explained.

I would think more people want change that want the current tried old politics, part of Herman's appeal. Or should I say, Herb's?

That seemed a little racist.

Whine-O must receive the daily talking points from the White House. I wonder what profession Whine-O is in?

This kind of ankle biting only elevates him.

Like being a journalist (and proud of it) has anything to do with Herman Cain wanting to add a little gospel to Hail to the Chief...

Oh wait, that was a strawman to avoid discussing the actual OP. Now I understand.

Now it's time for Nmysys to play the victim.

A comedian has done the best rendition of the Star Spangled Banner in quite a while, staying more traditional than all the other vocal 'artists' that add their own wails, tunes, styles and lyrics.

And someone's gonna bitch if "Hail to the Chief" starts to have a little syncopation?

Who was outraged about it? I wasn't.

I thought it was interesting. That's why I posted it.
