Pretend that Congress has decided to scrap "The Star-Spangled Banner" and designate a new national anthem. What elements would you like to see contained in the new anthem? Why? Think beyond just text/lyrics. In a 250-300 word post, list the elements you would like and explain why they are important to you, and to the piece's role as a national anthem. Your 50-75 word responses to two of your groupmates should either affirm and expand upon the original post, or challenge it and offer alternative points of view for consideration.

The new national anthem should address the cultural influence that the country has on the entire planet.

Explanation:

The USA has a strong and imposing national anthem that exposes all the pride of the nation and reinforces how the country overcame its opponents, solved its problems and managed to be a strong, independent and fearless nation.

However, if it were decided that the national anthem would be reformulated to express the country's most current characteristics, it would be ideal for the new national anthem to address the cultural influence that the United States of America has in basically every country in the world. This cultural influence is a result of all the economic success and persuasion that the US has managed to establish and is probably the most striking feature of the country today.
