![Rick Perry Rick Perry's Anti-Gay Ad Features Music by Gay Composer Aaron Copland [UPDATE] By Nick Greene Sat., Dec. 10 2011 at 2:43 PM Categories: It Came From YouTube, Music, Nick Greene, Politics, Rick Perry Comments (45) 47 377 71 Digg t +19 retweet By now, you've probably seen Rick Perry's "Strong" ad, in which he opines, "There's something wrong in this country when gays can serve openly in the military but our kids can't openly celebrate Christmas or pray in school."

As the Harvard Political Review points out, the music that plays in the background of Perry's ad is inspired by or directly taken from Aaron Copland, a gay composer. A Harvard music major noticed the the connection and sent the author of the Political Review post an email saying, "Just realized this: the music in Rick Perry's new anti-gay ad is by Aaron Copland, a famous 20th Century American composer... who was an outspoken gay Jew." Copland also supported the Communist Party.](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/215/984/tumblr_lw1zcqTbB21qgxowio1_1280.png "tumblr_lw1zcqTbB21qgxowio1_1280.png")
