27. I think our anthem should reflect our struggles to become a free nation.

Not the latest political whim. Also there is an element of power to anthems. Our anthem reflects how we achieved the power to be free. We fought for it. That might make a good national ballad. But not a national anthem. Also I'm from Baltimore. The home of the national anthem. So yes I do have some bias in this.
