“Imagine” covered by Tulsi Gabbard … (Bravery / Courage / Honor – Music to Your Ears, Covers–60)

Maybe Lennon would have advised the US to give Tulsi a chance. I would.

Tulsi Gabbard – “Imagine”

“Imagine” (2019 – original from 1971)

On the 39th anniversary of John Lennon’s assassination, Hawaii congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard released this quiet cover of Lennon’s anthemic song “Imagine.”  

Peace Bus

Tulsi is accompanied by her husband on ukulele. The couple share the vocals, singing softly and gently – and peacefully – while sitting in the back of her campaign bus, as they bring her message of peace to the country and the world.   

For decades, the US has given many warmongers a chance to bring about change. In most cases, however, those warmongers took the chance to rape, pillage, bomb – and reap insane profits.

Maybe it’s time to give a peace-loving candidate a chance to lead the country.   (Image source)

Tulsi Gabbard

Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard is the certainly the most strident anti-war candidate the US has seen in a very long time.  

Imagine a Peace President

A major in the Army National Guard who has served 2 tours of duty in the Middle East, Tulsi has repeatedly called for an end to the USA’s regime-change wars. And when she released this vid, she restated Lennon’s call to “Give peace a chance.”

Given her message of “peace,” maybe Lennon would have advised the US to “Give Tulsi a chance.”  I would.   (Image source)

Notorious Warmonger Hillary Slanders Tulsi

Tulsi has been much maligned for her anti-war position.

In October 2019, Tulsi was the target of the notorious warmonger and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, who slandered and smeared Tulsi by hinting, ludicrously, that the Russians were “grooming”  Tulsi to run as a third-party candidate. 

In response, Tulsi filed a defamation lawsuit against Clinton for spouting such absurd nonsense.

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today ... Aha-ah ...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace ... You ...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world ... You ...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one.

My running mate, @enginewitty, has his own things going on.

When you all send us to Washington? He will be running things anyway! 🤣

We really need to approach The Major and offer her the Cabinet Position as Secretary of Defense!

That would be a wise choice.
