For the Clinton camp
ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST….by Queen.
But give her credit, Sen Hillary has been ready on DAY ONE to return
to the Senate and answer her phone at 3 am.
This is it Jack.
Brian

Here are my picks for the candidates theme songs:

McCain:
“The best is yet to come” - Sinatra.
McCain would fail if he tried to tie himself to any mnodern song.
It would be a good message for him from, a perosn closer to his generation.

Hillary:
“There’s whiskey in the jar” - Classic Irish Folk Song.
She is not going to beat Obama….So it is time for a drink!

Obama:
“Man in the mirror” - Michael Jackson
The message of change, and actually some excellent lyrics.
This would fit Obama very well.

Great Show as Always,
Kevin

Jack,
For McCain = Highway to Hell AC/DC
For Clinton = Holiday Green Day
For Obama = Better Together Jack Johnson

For Barack Obama, “U Can’t Touch This” by M.C. Hammer.

For Hillary Clinton, “Go Home” by Stevie Wonder.

For Mike Huckabee, “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going” by Jennifer Hudson.

For John McCain, nothing, because when he was born, music wasn’t invented yet.

The Texas A&M University War Hymn for Barack Obama.

Theme song from the Rocky movies is appropriate for Hillary.

Its so hard to say goodbye to yesterday by Boyz to Men for Hillary and McCain.

How about “Waist Deep in the Big Muddy’ for McCain ?

For Obama. Carry On My Wayward Son by Kansas. For Senator Clinton “Yet your afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme” thats from cold cold heart by Hank Williams. For John McCain a little song from the sixties that I don’t remember who sung but it went like this “I love him, I love him, I love him. I will follow him. Whereever he may go……”

Jack a fitting theme song, for the remaining candidates and our nation, as well would be, “Are the good times really over for good”, by country legend Merle Haggard. Listen to this 1981 song and you’ll see how much it applies, to our nation’s problems and concerns. It’s definitely a beer drinking song Jack.

Hilary with the obvious: Can’t Stand Losing You by The Police

McCain: Born in the U.S.A. (Bruce Springsteen)

Nader: Bye, Bye American Pie (Don McLean)

Hi Jack

Obama High Hopes

Clinton The Impossible Dream

McCain Old Soldiers Never Die

Hukabee The Hucklebuck

Thanks for a wonderful show!

The band’s been playing Taps for Huckabee and Clinton, but someone doesn’t have the guts to ask them remove their earplugs.

McCain - Adios Amigo - Jim Reeves
Obama - The Devil Went Down To Georgia - Charlie Daniels
Clinton - Baby I’m A Want You - Bread

Jim
Prosperity SC

Obama, song is (You are the man) by En Vogue.

Clinton, song is (I jus wont it to be over) by Keyshia Cole.

McCain, song is (Didn’t we almost have it all) by Whitney Houston.

Obama’s is easy. “Yes We Can” by will.i.am

Jack,

If we only had a viable independent candidate (Lou Dobbs, you reading this), the fitting song for all three candidates would be a great Willie Nelson song, The Party’s Over!

For Hillary…any song where the fat lady sings.

Al, Lawrence KS

Mike Huckabee - Mamma told me not to come by 3 dog night –Hillary Clinton - Party’s over by Telsa –Barack Obama - Born to run by Bruce Springsteen –John McCain - Old man by Neil Young

Hillary …………Money by Pink Floyd
Barack………….Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd
McCain………. Wish You Were Here by pink Floyd
Huckerbee….. Lunatics by Pink Floyd

Jack, notice a theme here. There all physcadelic, not just the songs but the canidates too!

Mc Cain - The Impossible Dream, preferrably with a windmilll in the background.

For Obama - “You Can’t hide your lie’n Eyes” The Eagles

For Clinton - “I get knocked down but I get up again”
By Chumbawumba

For McCain: “It’s the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)”, by R.E.M. If there’s any song that can sum up John McCain’s campaign and his potential effect on the country, I haven’t heard it.

For Huckabee: “Don’t You (Forget About Me)”, by Simple Minds. The title, the lyrics, and even the band name somehow seems fitting. Plus, Mike Huckabee seems like a Breakfast Club sort of person.

For Clinton: “Big Girls Don’t Cry”, by Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. It’s a classic song that everyone knows, and a lesson that she should keep in mind from now on.

For Obama: “Living in America”, by James Brown. I’ve always wanted a presidental campaign to use the song. It’s got a great beat, you can dance to it (I’d give it a 9), and it really speaks to America as a whole.

Changes by David Bowie: for Obama, it suits his campaign. Also Hail to the Chief: for Hillary, fit’s her attitude. And best of all, Fortunate Son by CCR, which amplifies my position on his war hungry attitude.

OBAMA=MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR BY THE BEATLES

CLINTON=FEELIN’ STRONGER EVERY DAY BY CHICAGO

MCCAIN=THE LONG RUN BY THE EAGLES

HUCKABEE=RUNNING ON EMPTY BY JACKSON BROWNE

For Obama: One moment in time by Whitney Houston
For Clinton: Back stabbers by the OJays
For McCain: Good night, Sweet Heart, its time to go………..

OOPS! I forgot a second one for Huckabee: Simple Man (Lynrd Skynrd)

Dea r Jack:

As theme songs for the remaining presidential candidates, I decided to choose titles written by the Beatles because…well, who doesn’t know the Beatles.

Barack Obama: Magical Mystery Tour
Hillary Clinton: I’m a Loser
John McCain: You Never Give Me Your Money
Mike Huckabee: I’m Happy Just to Dance with You
Ron Paul: Money (That’s All I Want)
Ralph Nader: The Fool on the Hill

There’s no bad day that can’t be overcome by listening to a song by any barbershop quartet. SInce the are all intellectuals, you could play the William Tell Overture, but then again hey want associate that with the Longe Ranger. You could choose an Opera; it s when individuals start stabbing each other in the back and, instead of bleeding, they sings.

Obama….exit music from “The Right Stuff” although those that say “High Hopes” have a good point
Hillary…… “No Feelings” by the Sex Pistols
McCain (or any OTHER Republican) …. “Liar” by the Sex Pistols

Clinton - Another one bites the dust
McCain - Bourn in the USA
Obama - You can’t touch this

Nobody else is really in the race so no music needed.

Tammie
Midland, MI

For McCain-”Barbara Ann” (Bomb Iran)

For Huckabee-”On a Wing and a Prayer”

For Clinton-”Hard to Say I’m Sorry”

And for Obama-”We are the Champions”

McCain should pick a composition by Mozart. That way he could relive his childhood, which were around the years Mozart lived his.

Bucks County, PA

Jack
You and all these people who responded to this question need to get a hobby !

I have some Star Wars themes:

Clinton: Imperial March (Darth Vader’s Theme)

Obama: Leia’s News - Light Of The Force

McCain: Parade Of The Ewoks

Too bad I cannot actually send you a montage - it would look really funny!

For McCain: The Fool on the Hill, by the Beatles

Joshua Tree, CA

Obama’s (to Hillary Clinton): “Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goo-ood-bye….”

For Hillary: “Fighter” by Christina Aguilera!

“Makes me that much stonger, Makes me work a little bit harder, It makes me that much wiser, So thanks for making me a fighter, Made me learn a little bit faster, Made my skin a little bit thicker, Makes me that much smarter, So thanks for making me a fighter… You won’t stop me. I am a fighter and I ain’t gonna stop, There is not turning back, I’ve had enough”

Or “Survivor” by Destiny’s Child

I’m a survivor (what),
I’m not gonna give up (what),
I’m not gon’ stop (what),
I’m gonna work harder (what),
I’m a survivor (what),
I’m gonna make it (what),
I will survive (what),
Keep on survivin’ (what),
I’m a survivor (what),
I’m not gonna give up (what),
I’m not gon’ stop (what),
I’m gonna work harder (what),
I’m a survivor (what),
I’m gonna make it (what),
I will survive (what),
Keep on survivin’ (what).

Gee….Forgot all about Nader

DREAM ON BY AEROSMITH

It is sad but for Hillary I guess about the only song that seems appropriate for her and the nation is ” Where have all the Flowers Gone “

Too many to sort through for the dems, but for the whole republican party:
They’re coming to take me away…HA! HA!!

Barack- Didn’t We (Almost Make it This Time)

Clinton- Happy Days Are Here Again

McCain- Na-Na-Na-Na, Hey, Hey, Hey, Goodbye

Mary from Florida

A good one for Huckabee is an old Hank Williams Song ” When God Comes and Gathers his Jewels “.

Obama- We are the World- old ,young,black,white,hispanic, men,women all are coming together because they believe in him!!

Hillary “Mean Woman Blues- We know why, I think we can figure it out

McCain- Forever Young- cause he thinks he is.

Huckabee- “All I really want to do” Is beat John McCain and be the nominee oh yea and president too

Paul-”Leave me Alone” Nader- All or Nothing

for hillary it would be bb king’s the thrill is gone

McCain: Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone

Obama: “Ain’t no stopping us now” and “I take you there”

Clinton: Oops I did it again

The theme song for the Republican campaign should be “Send in the Clowns”.

For Hillary, Tchaikovsky’s Pathétique Symphony, fourth movement.

Tchaikovsky’s Capriccio Italien for Obama or Lincoln’s campaign song, a portion of which is plagarized below (though it is in public domain):

O clear the track for Honest Ob,

McClinton is behind him,
She can never win the race,
She can’t keep up with Obama.

Obama — Queen: A Kind of Magic
Hillary — Journey: Don’t Stop Believing — the most uncool song I can think of, which she already used in an official video
McCain — I’ll ask my grandma

For Barrack Obama there is no other song more fitting than “Heaven on their Minds” from Jesus Christ Superstar.

And when I see you happy
Well It sets my heart free.
I’d like to be as good a friend to you
As you are to me.”

Words by Judy Collins

This song reminds me of Hillary Clintons message to struggling Americans.

Song for Obama - M.C.Hammer’s “Can’t Touch This”

Barack Obama’s HAS to be “A Change Is Gonna Come” by Sam Cooke. Period.

Theme song for Obama: This is my now! The song that Jorden Sparks sang when she won American Idol. This is perfect for no one even dreamt that he would have gotten this far. Yes he can and he will.

For Obama - M.C. Hammer’s - “Can’t Touch This”

Hit me with your best shot.
Maine

“Workin’ on the Chain Gang” by The Pretenders

I think Another One Bites the Dust for Clinton is perfect…

Hillary’s theme song should be “I’m Sorry 2004″–by Ruben Studdard…because she must be sorry she didn’t run in 2004!

Obama’s theme song should be “I’m Gonna Knock You Out…Mamma Said Knock You Out!”–by L.L. Cool J. That is definitely the song of a champion. Addionally, Obama rhymes with Mamma!

All Rolling Stones songs:

Hillary, “”Ain’t Seen Nothin Yet”" She gets up everyday fighting for average Americans. Her words and actions have prepared her for the Presidency. She will win Texas, Ohio, and R.I. and all you card carrying Obamarama idol worshipers are going to have to sing along. What has happened to you Jack? You use to be able to tell the difference between real and memorex.

You heard it here first, my friends . . .

Clinton: “Makin’ Believe” by Kitty Wells
Obama: “Let the Good Times Roll” by Ray Charles
McCain: “Too Old to Cut the Mustard” by Ernest Tubb

There are too many possibilities, so I’ll restrict myself to Tom Petty:

Barack Obama - Runnin’ Down a Dream
Hillary Clinton - Free Fallin’
John McCain - The Waiting
Mike Huckabee - I Won’t Back Down
Ralph Nader - Don’t Come Around Here No More

Barack Obama: “Brush Your Shoulders Off” Jay-Z or
“They Know” Shawty Lo
Hillary Clinton: “Hard to Say Goodbye” Boyz II Men
Mike Huckabee: “My Perogative” Bobby Brown
John McCain: “For the Good Times” Otis Redding

“Rock-a-bye-baby.”

As a Clinton sleeps her phone rings forever?

I thought it amusing that the current “phone” ad is intended to engender fear — rather it gave me additional pause for concern about Senator Clinton’s lack of executive skills.

Do we want a CEO who lets the phone ring, while a world crisis could be ongoing? I think not.

The phone ad just reinforces the lack of long and short range planning, fiscal reasonableness, and lack of execution in her campaign; all of which reinforces good reasons why she lacks skill and experience as a CEO.

To Brian in Fla — Perfect, could not have said it better.

McCain’s theme song should be “Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number”–by the late great Aaliyah…because he is so damn old.

Huckabee’s theme song should be “Never Gonna Get It”–by En Vouge…because he is never gonna get the Republican nomination.

Jack,

For Hillary and Mike Huckabee I would suggest “Turn out the lights the parties over”

For John McCain I would suggest a John Denver song “Some Days are Diamonds, Some Days are stones”

Can’t believe I didn’t think of this earlier, Hillary Clinton’s should be “It’s My Party” by Leslie Gore.

For this Tuesdays Theme song for Hilliary, if she wins: Eye of the Tiger

For this Tuesdays Theme son for Obama, if he wins. Yes we can (Pointer Sisters)

For John McCain, to conservatives: If you leave me now ( by Chicago)

For Huckabee: King of the Road

McCain: The Beatles, “Come Together”, or Crosby, Stills, and Nash, “Ohio”.
Clinton: “Who Do You Think You Are, Mr. Bigstuff”
Obama: “Can’t Touch This”

Funny you should ask–I’ve had my selection for weeks:

McCain: “I’ll Be Watching You” by the Police
Obama: “Born in the USA” by The Boss
Clinton: “I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor
Paul: “Is There Anybody There”

Sher from Hagerstown, Maryland

For John McCain–This old man
for Hillary Clinton-The old gray mare ain’t what she used to be
For Barack Obama– You light up my life !! Which is true & he gives me hope to carry on !

Hillary–”It’s MY Party and I’ll Cry if I Want To”

Funny, I always thought that “City of Blinding Lights” by U2 was Obama’s theme song.

What a superfluous topic to focus on. I expect better of Jack Cafferty, one of the few real journalists left on television (Wolf Blitzer not included in that dwindling group). Where’s John Chancellor when we need him?

Clinton– You can”t always grt what you want—Rolling Stones
Obama–We are the Champions—Queen
McCain–old time rock & roll—silver bullet band

One last one, John McCain’s should be “We’ll Follow The Old Man” from White Christmas.

For Barak Obama…
Eminem’s lose yourself. It tells Barak’s story of him coming from the people.

For Hillary and John McCain? I would have to say Europes the Final countdown, or if I were to seperate the two, which is becoming harder and harder these days…
For Hillary… Gloria Gaynor’s I will survive, and for John MCain… The Beach Boys.. Boperan [His words Bomb Iran]. this way the people will know EXACTLY what they’re gettin. One’s a self centered victim, and the other thinks it’s funny to decimate other regions to show how tough we are.

“You can’t always get what you want but, if you try some times you might just find, you get what you need” - The Rolling Stones

Hillary - ‘The best is yet to come’.- Sinatra

Jack, the horn on my car is more inspirational than ANY of the remaining candidates.

For Barack Obama,

Lenny Kravitz’ - It ain’t over, ’til it’s over

(though hopefully it will be over soon…

for Ron Paul

Aimee Allen’s Unofficial “Ron Paul Revolution”
(it’s great by the way Youtube it and hear it yourself.

Written just for the purpose…how many others can say that?

John McCain - “Johnny B Good”
Hillary Clinton - “Who’s bed have your boots been under”
B. Obama - “Brainwasher”

Mike Huckabee-Livin’ on a Prayer
John McCain-Born in the USA

Hillary Clinton-(Can’t Get No)”Satisfaction”
Barack Obama-”Change Gon’ Come”

Ralph Nader-”Never Gonna Get It”

Hillary; Garth Brooks ,Friends in low places

Obama: You Raise Me Up
Hillary and McCain: You Raise HIM Up!

For Obama there is a Chicago song called Glory of Love that has perfect lyrics for him. It says “I am the man who will fight for your honor. I’ll be the hero you’ve been dreaming of. We’ll live forever, knowing together that we did it all for the glory of love”. Since his message is one of hope, and love, and coming together for the greater good. I think that one is perfect.

For Hillary I think that old Paula Abdul song Cold Hearted Snake is perfect for her..but just change he to she…”She’s a cold hearted snake, look into her eyes…uh oh…she’s been telling lies”…..Yep, sums her up just perfect!!

Obama - “Yes We Can” by Will.I.am

Clinton - “Sha na na na. Hey hey hey. Goodbye” by The Dave Clark Five

McCain - “Stupid Girl” by Garbage

If Hillary wins
Ain’t No Stopping Us Now.

McCain: Here we Go Again.

Obama: 911 is a joke.

McCain: How ’bout “A Thousand Lies”, by Hypocracy?

Like all things in life, this question can be answered with Metallica

Obama: Holier Than Thou
Clinton: Master of Puppets
McCain: Seek and Destroy
Huckabee: For Whom the Bell Tolls
Paul: The Shortest Straw
Nader: The Thing that Should Not Be

Huckabee - Dream a little dream with me.

Hillary - Wishin on a star

McCain - Ever;ything bad is good

Obama - We’re a winner

please remove my last post, i didn’t realize what that song “white punks on hope ” was about…….i guess i should of read the lyrics instead of just the title.

again so sorry!!!

” STAND BY YOUR MAN by Tammy Wynette for HILLARY CLINTON

” Dirty Lowdown ” by Bozz Skaggs for Barack Obama

” GRANDMA GOT RUN OVER BY A REINDEER ” By Elmo n Patsy for
John McCain

David Crosby , Austin , Tx

Hillary: Taking care of business
Obama: Island girl

pe.rfect song for Obama, Pointer Sisters “yes we can can. this describes his new focus for America.”

For Ron Paul — here’s a Depression ditty:

“We ain’t got a barrel of money, we may be ragged and funny, but we’ll get along, singing our song, side by side …”.

Of course, when McCain runs out of cash, his people can also use this as a campaign song.

Cafferty - once again. Bias. I noticed you did not mention that Barack Obama used the offensive Jay Z rap song “99 Problems” after his Iowa win.

Obama - “The Age of Aquarius” by the Fifth Dimension

Clinton - “Lying Eyes” by the Eagles

McCain - “Over There” by George M. Cohan

Obama:Born to Run by Springsteen, I Put A Spell On You by Creedence Clearwater Revival, Waitin on the World to Change,by John Mayer.
Clinton:New York’s Not My Home by Jim Croce, Let Your Loss be Your Lesson, by Robt Plant and Allison Krauss, I Wanna Talk About Me by Toby Keith
McCain: Gimme Your Money Please by BTO, Let’s War by Plastic Constellations, I Won’t Back Down by Tom Petty
Huckabee: Running on Faith by Eric Clapton, Countin on a Miracle by Bruce Springsteen.
Al Gore: Waiting in the Weeds by the Eagles

Ron Paul’s Theme song (He is still in the race) should be

“Ron Paul Revolution Theme Song” by Aimee Allen

Watch it on YouTube - search for video SBCKMTo210k

Obama - “This is Why I’m Hot” by Mims
Hillary - “I’m Dreamin” by Christopher Williams
McCain - “This Old Man” by Author Unknown (Nursery Rhyme)
Huckabee - “Never Can Say Goodbye” by the Jackson 5

Great theme for Obama’s campaign: the theme from “The Sting”

Clinton - “End of the Road” by Boys to Men or “Ain’t To Proud To Beg” by The Temptations

Obama - “Faith” by George Michael or “A Change Would Do You Good” by Sheryl Crow

McCain - “The Song Remains the Same” by Led Zepplin

Huckabee - “Never Gonna Get It” by En Vogue

Great Question Jack,

I suggest each campaign go with a song by Ray Charles…

Ralph Nader: Born To Lose
John McCain: Here We Go Again
Mike Huckabee: Hit The Road Jack
Ron Paul: You Don’t Know Me
Barack Obama: What’d I Say
Hillary Clinton: Crying Time

and Bill Clinton: I Got a Woman

Except that Bob Seger’s song suggests hardship and struggleing for survival in oppressive economic conditions that John McCain’s presidency would likely deliver, the song “Against the Wind” certainly brings up an image of old man McCain leaning into the winds of change and making very little progress.

for Hillary, any Bruce Springsteen will do, he is a good Democrat.

Hillary - Sisters are Doing It For Themselves
Obama - You’re So Vain
McCain - Theme Song from No Country For Old Men

Hilary should be using Simon and Garfunkels song as her theme now……” Slip Sliding Away “

For Hillary, “Dude Looks Like a Lady” by Aerosmith

John McCain: “Don’t Fear the Reaper” Blue Oyster Cult

Huckabee: “The Pusher” by Blind Melon

Hillary: “We Are Not Going to Make It.” The Presidents of the United
States of America. (haha)

Obama: “We’re Not Gonna Take It! (Anymore)” Twisted Sisters

Jack,

Here are my picks for campaign songs:

Huckabee: The Impossible Dream
McCain: Young At Heart
Clinton: HELP!
Obama: Camelot

Michael
Montreal, QC

McCain - Crazy by Patsy Cline
Clinton - Another One Bites the Dust - by Queen
Obama - We Are the Champions - by Queen

Appropriate campaign songs for the remaining contenders should be:

Huckabee… “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” by The Rolling Stones
McCain… “Same Old Song and Dance” by Aerosmith
Clinton… “Black Magic Woman” by Santana
Obama… “Sitting on Top of the World” by Cream

For Obama I would chose YES WE CAN, CAN , great song
from The Pointer Sisters. Very empowering theme.

Hillary Clinton - When Will I be Loved - the Everly Brothers
John McCain - Luck be a Lady Tonight - Marlon Brando, Frank Sinatra
Mike Huckabee - Help - the Beatles
Barak Obama - Oh, Lord it’s Hard to be Humble - Mac Davis
Ron Paul (remember him?) - Hello, is Anybody Out There - Pink Floyd
Ralph Nader - He’s a Real Nowhere Man - the Beatles

Little River Band’s “Take it Easy on Me,” for Hillary Clinton, Bon Jovi’s “It’s My Life,” for John McCain, and Peter Frampton’s “Do You Feel Like We Do,” for Barack Obama. Did I just date myself here?

For the superdelegates: Switch (Will Smith):

“Oh, you just gonna stand there, huh
What you too cute to dance, or you scared

It ain’t really that hard to do and
I aint trying to be in love with you and
All I wanted was a moment or two to
See if you could do that switch-a-roo and
“

Music certainly does play an important role on the campaign trail, and society in general. In Sen. Obama’s case, given his politics of change and fierce urgency of now i would suggest NOT using well known dated songs. Why not try something new, something different, a change if you will. Sen. Obama needs a song capable of inspiring his movement. ‘The Time is Now’ by Ohio artist Illogic is perfect. Senator, have your people get my email address from CNN and i’ll forward an mp3 for your i-pod.

For the Clinton camp
ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST….by Queen.
But give her credit, Sen Hillary has been ready on DAY ONE to return
to the Senate and answer her phone at 3 am.
This is it Jack.

John McCain:the Beatles- I am the Walrus
Hillary Clinton: the Beatles- John Williams- Jaws theme
Barrack Obama: the Beatles-TaxMan

Ron Paul: the Beatles- All you need is Love

Hope this helps you Cafferty, im a disgruntled American

Obama - Get Up, Stand Up (Bob Marley)
Clinton - Could Have Been (Tiffany)
Huckabee - And I Am Telling You [I'm not Going] (Jennifer Holiday)
McCain - My Way (Frank Sinatra)

I am a Hillary supporter. I think Senator Obama should use “Better as a Memory”..(than as your man) by Kenny Chesney

Clinton: “Don’t Stop Believing” - Journey
Obama: “War” -Edwin Starr or “Dream On” - Aerosmith
McCain: “Iron Man” - Black Sabbath

This is too hard to resist.

Ralph Nader - “I Don’t Give A ****” by Lil Jon and the Eastside Boyz

Hillary Clinton: “Livin’ on a Prayer” by Bon Jovi

Barack Obama: “Change the World” by Eric Clapton, or “Fight the Power” by Public Enemy

” GARDEN PARTY ” by Ricky Nelson for John McCain

” WHEN YOU’RE GOOD TO MOMMA” from CHICAGO for Hillary Clinton

” MISTER CELLOPHANE ” from CHICAGO for Mike Huckabee

” WAR WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR ? ” by Edwin Starr for Barack Obama

Ricky Nelson , Heavens Gate , Calif

When Senator Obama won in Iowa I heard a theme song that didn’t resonate with him or with his campaign…I immediately sent an email to them and expressed they neede to use… SIGNED SEALED DELIVERED by Stevie Wonder as atheme song…Although he didn’t win in New Hampshire…The song has continued because of the fact it gives credence to his platform. (1)…He SIGNED that he would run for President… (2)He has DELIVERED powerful messages of hope change and empowerment to motivate the people to become invoved in the political process…(3)He’s willing to say I’M YOURS if you join me in an effort to make change for a better future for our country in voting me as the next President of the United States of America.
Other than Signed Sealed Delivered …..Any song with YES WE CAN….Donnie McClurkin, or The Pointer Sisters.

Dream On (from Aerosmith)- Obama

Respect (From Aretha Franklin) - Clinton

For Barak Obama… Eminems Lose Yourself

… Because brother…
“You only get one shot
Do not
miss your chance to flow
This opportunitty comes
once ina lifetime so

You better Lose yourself [in the movement]…”

Obama, It’s all Smoke and Mirrors. or Beauty is only skin deep.

Hillary, It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to.

McCain, The Rocky Theme

Obama: either Genesis’ “Land of confusion” or En Vogue’s “Free your mind.”

We’re a winner by The Impressions for Obama.

For Obama I would have to say “For What It’s Worth
