Underneathica Party Political Broadcast
Underneathica heartily and unreservedly endorses either presidential candidate of either party who can perform the following feats of strength, diplomacy, wisdom and prudence (as described in song):1) Bring home our soldiers from the quagmire in Middle East:
Steve Earle - Rich Man's War (buy The Revolution Starts Now)
2) Provide health insurance to the 47 million Americans who are uninsured, and restore comprehensive services to our public mental health system:
Ramones - You Sound Like You're Sick (buy Pleasant Dreams)
3) End the prejudice and intolerance toward our recent immigrants, and recognize their contributions to our economy and our culture:
Basement 5 - Immigration (1965-1980 needs to be reissued)
4) Undo the damage done by Dubya to America's image abroad:
Ostzonensuppenwürfelmachenkrebs - My Life in the Ghost of Bush (buy Absolut Nicht Frei)
5) Reduce the trillion dollar deficit and provide a lasting stimulus to our economy, rather than a feel-good tax break that will become another debt for our children to repay:
Kultur Shock - God Is Busy, May I Help You? (buy We Came to Take Your Jobs Away)

What's sad is how commonsensical your proposals would seem to be - and, in fact, how survey after survey shows most Americans agree - and yet, how difficult it seems to be to get politicians to endorse and uphold such views and still be regarded as "electable" - as if the views of those supposedly actually doing the electing don't matter.
Sad indeed. Just one example is the fact that Massachusetts has nearly achieved universal healthcare without "socialized" medicine, but Romney seems to have distanced himself from this achievement.
The Basement Five!!!!!!!!!!!
