Overlord? Lol. That is quite opposite. Anarchists should not use seatbelts, not breathe clean air, not drink cleaned water, not use clean energy, not know anything the government does and not resist war because Ralph Nader is "their overlord". What form of delusionary mind can reject peace in favor of anarchy?
@StratusBlue True anarchy is peace. To reject anarchy as an option is to reject the possibility of world peace without the complete domination of the human mind. In order to achieve world peace you have to enslave the mind with money, sex, and religion. To keep an indentured servitude in the world is to keep peace and on the opposite side to have no one person serve any other but serve the greater whole not as a machine piston but as a symbiont where both are prosperous that is anarchy.

...Fuck. Didn't this guy come from Tyrannyville, IL? Isn't his mom Mary Morello? "I suspect it wasn't made for billionaires and bankers..." Well, it wasn't made for socialist overlords like Ralph Nader either. Giving our looting government more power is not the answer. Reducing government to nothing is the answer...
yes yes yes that song was made for US and I mean us pople like you, me, tom, people living next door, co workers working next bench, people we all meet everyday on the street, busses, trains, on the walkside, for your girlfriends and boyfriends, wifes and husbands. NIGHTWATCHMAN - TOM
We can only hope that one day the tables will change and Nader or someone like him will be in office. It may seem like a losing battle now, but times are changing and people are taking back what belongs to America!
Remember singing this little ditty as an elementary school kid?
Well, this is the version that the government wouldn't let the kiddies know about, folks!
This is the full-length version that you won't find anywhere! Taken right off the pro cameras working the concert floor. Along with Stereo feed, direct from the Sound Engineer's mix board.
It's hard to find a better version of any of Tom Morello's work on YouTube. --- wheel of history ---

I certainly appreciate the grass roots nature of this song. Nader/Gonzalez will not win a single electoral vote. But they can make a difference. That difference will be for John McCain. A vote for Nader is a vote for McCain.
..And we won't win, WITHOUT A FIGHT! If your Congressmen/Senators won't listen (and they don't, time and time again), If you can no longer use legislation to remove corruption, if you're voice is a mere squeak in a phone, what would you do? Think about it, then realize, it really is now. If we don't show we mean business, that we can solve things peaceably, then we need to make it known that REVOLUTION will be our next course of action, that Armed Americans on the nat'l mall will be next...
i contributed $100 to nader's campaign during his $100,000 media fund drive. the nader team said donations of $100 or more will receive dvds of both the DNC and RNC "open the debates" rallies, and a third bonus dvd...
Yes, this song is far more proletarian than the cheapened nationalistic version would show. But even still I must ask the question: who is the "we"? What I mean is, some of the lyrics are reminiscent of Manifest Destiny. To American Indian ears, the constant assertion of "our" ownership of the land may sound inflammatory.
I've always loved that song. I think it's appropriate that it is used for Nader's campaign since he is one of the only candidates that has run for president who does care for the common man.
I don't know if anyone heard him mention it, but he's going to sing the last verse.

Ralph Nader is not an anarchist, man. He's closer to a socialist.

There are 6 verses; Tom sang 3 - the 1 we all know, and 2 others that are most striking...
Is it true this land was made for you and me? At the time the constitution was written, I wouldn't have been a full citizen or had voting rights.
I guess my point is just that it has always been an ongoing process to
a) keep the freedoms and rights we have and
b) expand those freedoms and rights to all equally.
But it takes Vigilance and a willingness to step outside the comfort zone.
Are you?
