Californians for selling California to Denmark

Sell California to Denmark.

People in Greenland and Denmark are appalled by the notion of selling Greenland to the United States.  On the other hand, Greenlanders and Danes have proposed buying California. 200,000 have already signed petitions proposing this. We Californians find the idea of Greenland-Danish citizenship very appealing.  Public health care, free education, a peaceful democratic government - what's not to like! And who doesn't love Danish pastries?

To show our enthusiasm for Danish or Greenland citizenship, Californians are busy practicing the Greenland and Danish national anthems.

Original Lyrics in Danish

Der er et yndigt land,
det står med brede bøge
nær salten Østerstrand,
nær salten Østerstrand;
det bugter sig i bakke, dal,
det hedder gamle Danmark,
og det er Frejas sal,
og det er Frejas sal.

Der sad i fordums tid
de harniskklædte kæmper,
udhvilede fra strid,
udhvilede fra strid;
så drog de frem til fjenders mén,
nu hvile deres bene
bag højens bautasten,
bag højens bautasten.
