	Robert J. Branham - "Of Thee I Sing": Contesting "America" - American Quarterly 48:4 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		King's use of "America" unites these two divergent performative traditions and constructions of the song: in one, the song is regarded as the ultimate expression of American patriotism; in the other, it is a singularly important site for contesting the nation's character, self-image and actions.
		As the song of freedom verberates and reverberates through the northern hills, and the lingering symphony quivers on the still air and then sinks away into silence, a low deep wail, heavy with anguish and despair, rises from the southern plains, and the clank of chains on human limbs mingles with the mournful cadence.
		In the tradition of the jeremiad, "America" provides a succinct and immediately recognizable statement of national promise, a gauge by which to measure the gap between present conditions and the promise, and a millennial imagination of national destiny in which the promise is redeemed.

	The Story of the song, America
		Sometimes known by its first line, My Country, 'tis of Thee, this song was written in 1832 by the Reverend Samuel F. Smith.
		There is a minor uncertainty here, as a writer in the Boston Evening Transcript claims to have sung it earlier than this in the Bowdoin Street Church, but Smith's own personal recollection continued to be that it was at the Park Street Church, and there is no reason to doubt his account.
		It was considered to be "un-American" in later years (somewhat ironic, considering the origins of the tune of the national anthem itself!), yet the tune had actually appeared in America before 1776.

	LATIN AMERICA’S SWAN SONG
		The spread of the global financial crisis to Latin America in general, and Brazil in particular, has changed the complexion of the problem in several ways.
		Beyond this, Latin America’s troubles bring out in an even clearer fashion than before the unpleasant dilemmas that all developing countries (and perhaps even smaller developed economies) now face.
		A good way to illustrate these dilemmas is to consider a classic analysis of macroeconomic policy in an open economy: Trevor Swan’s 1955 discussion of the difficulty of reconciling "internal balance" (i.e., more or less full employment) with "external balance" (an acceptable current account deficit).

	Dick Cheney’s Song of America
		This June it was a presidential lecture in the form of a commencement address at West Point, and in July it was leaked to the press as yet another Defense Planning Guidance (this time under the pen name of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld).
		America’s new mission would be to convince allies and enemies alike “that they need not aspire to a greater role or pursue a more aggressive posture to protect their legitimate interests.”
		Like the original draft DPG of 1992, he states that America’s goal is to develop and maintain the military strength necessary to “dissuade” rivals or adversaries from “competing.” with no challengers, and a proposed defense budget of $379 billion for next year, the United States would reign over all its surveys.

		The original version of "God Bless America" was written by Irving Berlin (1888-1989) during the summer of 1918 at Camp Upton, located in Yaphank, Long Island, for his Ziegfeld-style revue, Yip, Yip, Yaphank.

	"In America" - SFCommunity Message Board
		Just finished up a song which is an anthem against the outsourcing of American's jobs and the "spin" being put on it.
		And after listening to the song, the chorus is set apart from the verses very well by the music of the song, which works just as well in many cases as changing the meter.
		I actually tried to make the song a bit shorter by cutting out a repeat of the chorus (but I couldn't decide on leaving out a verse and not saying all I wanted to convey).

		Berlin's file of manuscripts and lyric sheets for this quintessentially American song includes manuscripts in the hand of Berlin's longtime musical secretary, Helmy Kresa (Berlin himself did not read and write music), as well as lyric sheets, and corrected proof copies for the sheet music.

	'America' in Patriotic Song (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		At about the time of the Second World War, various other patriotic songs were frequently substituted:the national anthem, `The Star-Spangled Banner'; the 'Marines' Hymn'; and occasionally 'Hail Columbia.' Then we all heard Kate Smith belt out 'God Bless America,' and this song was ours; it nearly became the new national anthem.
		Professor Bates wrote her song 'America the Beautiful' after visiting Pike's Peak during the summer of 1893, remembering the 'sea-like expanse of fertile country.'
		That puts America in the hearts of the people, and because of it Sam Smith will live when Longfellow and Whittier and all the rest have gone into oblivion.' While these two venerable poets have obviously not faded into oblivion, 'America' does still live on.
