Born Again American - Keith's Version

[CitizensForStevenson]

"My bible is the Bill of Rights." Me too! This was changed on the Born Again American web page version of the song. It says "My Bible and the Bill of Rights." Why Norman Lear allowed the words to be changed I do not know.

The issue the song addresses is civil rights and equality under the law. The song is not about religious freedom. Only 33% of our population attend any church on a regular basis. 66% are exercising their religious freedom by not attending/supporting organized religion.

An American's company sent the JOBS to China..put Americans out of work and made it so that they the out of work could not afford to shop elsewhere..and everyday more and more customers are added to the WALMART Shopping Experience..

[laetitialips]

[thunderbirdscarlett]

MY MOMMA SAYS OBAMA

[dave777blaster]

A song can be a powerful tool for good and bad

judging by comments I've read Americans are so ignorant of their own country and what the constitution means ,it's safe to say that America is finished.

[LeonidaII]

Go Lundy, Go!

[MrFestante]

[viperbaby7]

Brilliant Keith! Talk about making a positive difference on our planet!!! You're doin' it Baby!!!! Thank You!!!

[dondonp12004]

Awesome song! The first time I have seen Keith Carradine when he played A.G. Robinson on the "First Flight" episode of "Star Trek: Enterprise." Well done, Keith. May you and your music "live long and prosper."

[ThanxALott]

Sounds good BUT created by the FAR-LEFT NORMAN LEAR who is also the Founder of "People For The American Way"

...that 'sounds' good BUT its another FAR-LEFT organization. Their website has a list of "dangerous" Right-Wing groups. Probably the same groups on Janet Napolitano's right-wing "terrorist" list.

[johnandersonii]

This video is collectivist crap. A long time ago, I made my promise to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America, against all enemies, foreign and domestic, my offer still stands. The theme of this video wishes to make everything fair, and equal. That is not the promise of America. The Promise of America is equal footing, an equal place to start, not an equal place to end. We Americans all are born equal, we just don't expire equal, and that is the dream.

[spiritwalkerrick]

Listen to the words of the original version.

big difference in what he says

and the full song shouts constitution.

It is the remake that is fake and takes away from the true meaning of this work

[kbspots]

well i guess we all know where you stand.  I'm all for everything fair and equal, because Americans are my brothers and sisters. Bless those who share their love and wealth with all!

[johnandersonii]

Being an American guarantee's you an equal starting ground, not an equal place to finish. You are nothing special, you are just another man. If you wish to bless those who share wealth, than you embrace only those who wish to take wealth by force, and that makes you a theif at best. Americans' don't share wealth by force, we invest it, and we make more of it, and in turn put more Americans to work keeping the wheel going round and round.

[202longhorn]

Right on john. We have become a nation of hand outs and if we are not carefull we the USA will be standing in line.

[dave777blaster]

Then your not an American move to Russia their system is equal for all so all people earn 25,000$ per year

Americans have a constitutional Republic not a Democracy.

the majority doesn't rule America the constitution does.

and the Constitution and bill of rights guard

against people like you.

It is because the Constitution is being ignored that America is in such a sad a dilapidated state it is in.

[SexOffenderIssues002]

AWESOME VIDEO!!!

[mcpmusicman]

This is a terrific song, regardless of your religious affiliation. This is about AMERICA, the passion for freedom, the belief that our founding fathers got it right the first time in our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution. It brings us patriots together and lets those who wish to trash our Constitution know we will stand against them.

Great work Keith!!

[jlfittro]

@mcpmusicman

how much freedom do the native americans have after the genocide carried out per u.s. government policies!!

why were women and blacks left out of the constitution. yeah the founding rich white fat cats got it right for their class but no other. why don't you educate yourself. patriotic claptrap

[joosiarap]

This is really one song we need right now!!!

[LEFewkes]

In these days of economic disaster brought on by naked greed this song should be the anthem of America.

[sugarbritches4359]

Good Greif people quit fightin over this song geee forever more its a awesome song and we should be happy that we are a free american and we should stand together and fight for our rights and the bill of rights. We need to stand together as one and help our fellow man that is reachin out for us to stand together as americans. QUIT THE ARGUIN PLZ

[heididunn]

I'm a HUGE Keith Carradine fan! Personally, I prefer his original version to all the others. The man wrote the song right the first time!

[SugarP74]

KC rocks!!! This man is so multi-talented it's SICK. Why'd they change the darn lyric? That's so crazy! I'm a Buddhist so personally I was thrilled to see his original version be "less secular". The "my bible and The Bill of Rights" was the part of the song that made my brain go, "Oh ok...it's only for Christians. I'll stop listening now." Declare Yourself....sorry but changing KC's lyric was an unwise move.

[crisspybeers]

The whole point of the Born Again American project is for people to come together as one and try to make a difference. It's not just about Keith Carradine singing alone. It's about a bunch of people lending there voice. Have you seen the website? It wants people to make there own lyrics. The final version with "fifty people" is a non-secular and patriotic meaning. And, what's a "fundie" meaning?
