Young Cons Anthem: Conservatives Their Beliefs Through Rapping (VIDEO)

HuffPost's Jason Linkins included this astonishing video in his Scritti Politti roundup yesterday, but we felt it deserved its own post. "The Young Cons" are apparently some conservatives from Dartmouth College who think a good way to spread their beliefs is through rapping, specifically with their "Young Con Anthem."

Lest you think this is a parody, I direct you to their website, where they lay out their goals in a lengthy mission statement hailing "Ronald Reagan, Martin Luther King Jr., and arguably Jesus [as] the flag-bearers of the true conservative movement."

The "official" lyrics to the Young Cons Anthem can be found here. Watch the video below.

[menmykoko]

"the movement has begun"

No fake gangsta rappers...­.the movement has ended.

"soldiers bleed" Well, who's fault is that? Oh yeah...a conservative.

[j-rich]

Oh My what's this? An attempt to bring in younger voters I'm guessing? lol Nice try Republicans.

[MajorKong]

20 years of Alan Greenspan and these people want MORE freakin' Ayn Rand?

[boboyaya]

You know 'rap' or 'rapping' is on the way out
when masses of white people start doing it.
On to something new, please!
And that goes for wearing the pants below the waist
and showing the underwear and but crack too!

"Three things taught me conservative love:
Jesus, Ronald Reagan, plus Atlas Shrugged
Saving our nation from inflation devastation
On my hands and my knees praying for salvation"

Oh My God

[levibatgirl]

Rap-aganda.

Nothing like two privileged twits lambasting socialism. By the way, I hope they refuse to enjoy all of those socialist services like parks, roads, public school, medicare.

Finally, I'm an atheist, but if I recall, much of what Christ said (and did) could be construed as socialist. So aren't these dudes more Old Testament Christians?

[Ellyllon]

I think they're more 'corporate christians­.'

[Catjya]

Naw. gansta ,so called Christians.

[Burner]

I'm on a boat!

[j-rich]

LMAO!

[Dragline]

OMG! And I thought the Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg vidoes were funny.

Nothing more frightening than the look in a young Republican's eyes.

[Lovelydaze]

Yes, Dragline!

Poor Adam Samberg. As hilarious as his SNL shorts are, they are nothing compared to this "on purpose" tripe that these two geeks drew up.

Stay non-gangsta, Sons!

[jpayne30]

Nice sport coats! I'm guessing tighty whities too...that­'s gansta!
