What song sums up your thoughts on the State of the Union?

by Andrea Swensson

October 22, 2012

Between tonight's final presidential debate, Minnesota's two hot-button constitutional amendments, and the endless analysis of various pre-election polls, the American political system seems to be at the very front of people's minds right now.

As we continue the march toward November 6 and prepare to cast our ballots, the reporters at MPR News are asking a simple question: What song sums up your outlook on the future of the country?

The answers they collect from their poll will be compiled into a special election season-edition of the Current Presents, which will air this Sunday, October 28 at 9 p.m. All they need from you is an artist and song title, and why you feel it's especially relevant to what's happening today.

Fill out their survey form here, or simply leave your thoughts in the comments below.
