Make the Kazoo the National Instrument

Created by C.M. on November 04, 2012

Please join Barbara Stewart and Kazoophony in the Campaign to Make the Kazoo the National Instrument to Keep America Humming!We already have a national song, a national bird, and a national debt. We may not need those either, but why not make the kazoo the national instrument? This is the one non-partisan issue on which both red and blue states can agree, since it truly matters to no one.The kazoo is clearly the ultimate democratic instrument. While only a small elite can play the sousaphone, any constituent of yours who can talk, sing, or hum can kazoo.This uniquely American instrument was invented in Macon, GA in the 1840’s by an American black named Alabama Vest.It is a real instrument not a toy, and there is still one major manufacturer in the United States(Kazoobie Company) Thank you
