The British rock star, a prominent anti-war activist, was murdered on December 8, 1980.

Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard commemorated British rock star John Lennon on the anniversary of his assassination 39 years ago, citing the lyrics to one of his most well-known songs.

"Remembering John Lennon today," Gabbard, a congresswoman from Hawaii, wrote in a Twitter post Sunday, using the the thankful hands emoji."'All we are saying is give peace a chance,'" she added, quoting the lyrics to the song entitled"Give Peace a Chance."— Tulsi Gabbard Lennon, one of the four members of the superstar British rock band the Beatles, was assassinated on December 8, 1980 outside his residence in New York City at the age of 39.

Along with his wife and musical partner Yoko Ono, Lennon peacefully protested against the war in Vietnam. The U.S. withdrew from the conflict in 1973 and the war ended with the success of the Communist North Vietnamese forces in 1975. The anti-war song"Give Peace a Chance" was released in 1969 by the Plastic Ono Band, a collaboration between Lennon and his wife. Lennon wrote the song along with former Beatles' bandmate Paul McCartney. The tune, which was Lennon's first single separate from the Beatles, went on to become the anthem of the anti-war movement in the U.S. in the early 1970s.

Democratic presidential candidate Representative Tulsi Gabbard holds an American flag during the inaugural Veterans Day L.A. event held outside of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on November 11 in Los Angeles, California.

Poser

Evil never rests, Gabbard! A Serb terrorist sparked World War 1, an expansionist Japan had their way from 1931 to 1945, North Korean Reds invaded South Korea in 1950. All of that is just barely scratching the surface from events prior World War 1, and events after the Korean War.

If it hadn't been for Hilly Clinton's accusations the other day, I wouldn't have notice her. She' an unknown, lagging way behind in the polls. So, why is she still around?

Betting that Yoko Ono would tell this chick to take a hike. No one trusts her for a nanosecond.

Pandering. Our President is preventing war.

John knew and spoke about how the little people really have the power but don’t recognize it as they feel powerless against the elite. 2019 changes the rules.

Tulsi isn't fit to say his name

Perhaps Tulsi Gabbard meant to commemorate the one, i.e. Vladimir Lenin.

She should keep his name out of her mouth

Tulsi is Russian owned trash. Lock her up.
