[marcuspaulespey]

Flavored globe

[Logarithmify]

Does Ron Paul pay trolls to go onto every left-wing video and post a comment about how good he is?

[MCCHEESUSTHOMAS]

why so little views, on such an awesome song?

[batesmade]

@MCCHEESUSTHOMAS cuz most people are to stupid to get it?

[TheJeffreydagreat]

Democrats.. idots. I am a republican and my friend wanted me to watch THIS. STFU flowbots, you comunist, souslist fool.

[zombieman48]

@TheJeffreydagreat thank you troll.

[TheJeffreydagreat]

@zombieman48 Stfu libril..

[zombieman48]

@TheJeffreydagreat okay now i know you just want attention so i will not reply. from now on.

[SilencedRPG]

@TheJeffreydagreat i prefer to say im an American, and the sad thing is your the reason America's becoming unsuccessful and easily stereotyped. Learn how to spell asshole

[MrMudslap]

@TheJeffreydagreat First of all the problem in this country is we are so damn convinced we need to pick democrat or republican that we have forgotton the old saying "united we stand, devided we fall' so you my frend are part of the real problem. I'm not trying to make fun of you or degrade you but the only way we can fix this country is to put aside our differences and WORK TOGETHER and that is the meaning you missed in this video, peace.

[TheJeffreydagreat]

@MrMudslap You are right, and I didn't try to see the meeningof this. All right, thanks.

[TheLimeonator]

I love The Flobots so friggin much :D

[AIRSOFTzombie27]

disturbed is better than this how did i get here

[akiddownthestreet]

How the hell does someone like lady gaga have millions of views and this only has 600,000.

[64MojoMan]

@akiddownthestreet

Because this has a message, and messages can be confusing. Most of Lady Gaga's stuff is jut that...stuff

[ParalysisxD]

@akiddownthestreet Because the masses are idiots

[artydean2]

@akiddownthestreet Im no a gaga freak but i respect her she works hard and writes her own music much of which has the same sort of message but i agree with the point Flobots deserve alot more views they are inspired!

[DavidPennable]

@akiddownthestreet because vevo is the slowest server on the intraweb... Xb

[OMGxAIRSOFTxGMO]

@akiddownthestreet because lady gaga iz a man!

[maccas1329]

@akiddownthestreet Idiocy.

[NecroMetro]

@akiddownthestreet It's because todays social standards are not to look at the bigger problems.

[MadDogJake007]

@akiddownthestreet I know right Flobots are a hundred times better than "lady gaga"

[Manwhoknowshowtoread]

probably i could write a few A4 pages full about this, but its a fact Americans somehow put a lot of effort into upholding the "American folk" which is technicly 236 Years old.

Ive once got asked about the foreigner rate of America. Answer the question yourself i said

[Chrispollis]

i see Flobots like Rise against in rap

[LvsTheworld]

@Chrispollis in White Flag Warrior, Rise against Singer sang with them

[3lftw1ns]

i have that bandana ;D

[paramore0evanescence]

I think this band should be more recognized...at least a little more.

[MegaDubstep1234]

@paramore0evanescence Oh ya They are amazing!!!!1

[mojhin]

Freedom is the key

[MrMudslap]

@mojhin As much as I would like to agree with you man,"Freedom" is how the problem got off the ground. People where free to start huge corporatons, they where free to find the loop holes in our laws and they where free to advance themselves with capitalism, I am not saying socialism or communism is better, some crooked bastard will just find a way to exploit that too. My opinion we need to educate ourselves and the next generaton in information and morality, then freedom will be the key.

[Redemption3D]

did they break up or somdin

[Oozblar]

@Redemption3D flobots . com you tell me.

@AIRSOFTzombie27 Cute. You're cute, know that? Now kindly shut up and go fuck a railroad spike. War is never the answer. It's because of pricks like you that war is ever the only option and peace is just a dream.

[AIRSOFTzombie27]

@spoonman128 dude we r not gonna win the war with u little kids h8in on the army

[spoonman128]

@AIRSOFTzombie27 Unfuck yourself please. My family is full of vets and they all want this war to end as badly as I do. Mom? Military EMT. Dad? KIA Al Taqqadum Iraq 2007. Brother? Employed in Egypt. Grandpa? KIA Managua Nicaragua 1932. Grandma? Killed herself shortly after. I suggest you quit running your illiterate mouth since you have no clue what war can do to a happy family.

[spoonman128]

Can't stop listening...

[domydirtywork196]

@kingleanitis12 I'm pretty sure they just used flags

[BandGeekXP]

love the bass

[changchangmatt]

@NOWAYSKILZZ ya the gov is being sucked in by wall street but its not really that we have two parties nether agree we need a third party so that way the good comes out not just who has more people paid off

[changchangmatt]

God I love seeing dum people talking about the gov. Democrats want to control buiseness so no more jobs are shipped over seas and the republicans are for the 1% why do you think they were aganst the tax on the rich hmmm think before you vote please

[iamandris]

This is a very good song with a strong message. Too bad these guys are Obama supporters, if they were for a real "rising" of the people they would see that Obama is nothing but a Wall Street puppet.

Ron Paul 2012!

[Reptilico]

@iamandris "Obama is nothing but a Wall Street puppet"? "Ran Paul 2012"?

Really? You dont see the inconsistency in your paragrah?

rofl

[iamandris]

@Reptilico No, please allude to them, so we can start a debate in which I will destroy you.

[NOWAYSKILZZ]

@iamandris He was saying, the position of president is generally a position to do wall.streets bidding- I've always thought it's the system not the person in power- I honestly have hopeful thoughts that Ron Paul would attack the system if he got into power; He's the only one who has ever been consistent with his views...

[zombieman48]

@iamandris you do know ron paul wants everything to be run by a private sector. Also we need a strong central government like george washington and thomas jefferson wanted.

[batesmade]

@zombieman48 tard

[zombieman48]

@batesmade What did i do?

[batesmade]

@zombieman48 sorry, wasnt meant for you, oops, was pretty tore up

[zombieman48]

@batesmade Okay I do that by accident to sometimes so no hard feelings.

[FlowDropper1904]

If you watched the ad about Ron Paul. The Nerdy Looking Black Kid with Glasses. on the Wall on HIS left there is a bag of Weed "g-13" LOL! Thumbs up If you saw it! HA!

[changchangmatt]

God I love this band and there over all message

[irkenrick]

WHY CANT MY SPEAKERS GET ANY LOUDER?

[Mericuhwow]

@spidermancool100 thts not the meaning of the song derp is saying if we work together then we can do anything it has nothing with them being true americans

[spidermancool100]

These are true Americans

[cheesepuffsni66a]

I'm getting off the internet for the sopa blackout tomorrow. I don't know about you, but I like my internet freedom.

[LovehammerMedia]

@cheesepuffsni66a how does you not going on the internet hurt media companies or prevent SOPA & PIPA

[kingleonitus12]

where can i find one of those face masks?

[taeruk]

@kingleonitus12 Well, you could just get a flag-patterned cloth and make one. All they are is folded cloth, I'm pretty sure.

[DevyxWolfy]

screw those 65 people who disliked this song

[Matexterminator]

SOPA made me remember this song.

[lordhnut]

still love this song and the otherones

[lorenamonster]

The lyrics to this song are so strong. I can't help but shout out the lyrics to the world!

"The few stay stunning while the many are handsome

Your soul is alive but they want it for ransom

The base drumming is the anthem

We step to the heartbeats of our granddaughters and grandsons"

[deadpeasantmoon]

This song reminds me of Eyedea & Abilities' Smile because it's so compassionate.

[crazyrunner1000]

this country isnt a free country this country is bull crap people are being controlled by money and powe that will eventually lead to insanity and it will just be ww3 for more power by controlling other countries

[astrophysics1997]

America and it's people are lost in the message of what we're told is freedom is now a lie. If freedom is hungry people on the streets but they can say what they want, and uneducated people a few hundred miles away from the nearest school, yet they can have rights to a gun, this government is unjust. I may be an immigrant, but I speak for the country I grew up in and everyone living here, we can be the country our founding father's promised we can be.

[AIRSOFTzombie27]

true American gangsters XD

[AIRSOFTzombie27]

al quidia stupid

[MultiHello9999]

sends a strong message.

[AIRSOFTzombie27]

i like the song but im for the war AL-quidea and the talliban needs to be taught a lesson

[306cas]

@AIRSOFTzombie27 you cant teach an idea a lesson

[1burnman1]

@AIRSOFTzombie27 SO many things wrong with that statement, war does not determine who is right, only who is left

[Jebus4377]

I wish Johnny 5 looked more badass. Like, Brer Rabbit looks like a total boss. Don't get me wrong, I love me some Johnny, but his awesomeness doesn't match his appearance.

[TimothyK121]

@musicismymedicin1000 dont you find it amazing how dumb older people think younger people really are, im 13, and maybe a lot of kids around this age are really immature and dont make the smartest choces in life, but i can assure any of you who think that younger people are dumb because of there age is wrong, it just annoys me that people cant get over their first impressions of people, i hope one day that will change

[MultiHello9999]

better than sex.

[WedBrothers]

@MultiHello9999 you sure :D haaha

[pwm96]

Together we rise !!!!

[t6yz]

fuckin Hotbud69r.

[bowmanrobc]

Ron Paul 2012

[AsAMatterOfFact1]

[xthorpyx]

@AsAMatterOfFact1 hahahahaahahahahah

[AAAASMAR]

BEST TING ABOUT DIS PIECE IS THE "WE" BACKING ON THE CHORUS!'-

[mbrese12]

Favorite song ever

[MrXxsensitivexx]

Thumbs up if you visited Americawillbe

[GorillazBeatles]

Actually: The Flobots are really cool. After one of their shows, I met them, and we took pictures, hung out, and talked about Gogol Bordello and The Occupy Movement.

LONG LIVE THE FLOBOTS!

[MrSupasexi]

yo they took my idea of the american flag as a bandana! lol

[ZDayonZ]

@t6yz nice



[looshkin66]

a lot of people here should seek out the band propaghandi, a little bit more militant but far more intelligent.

[niceguy122]

@looshkin66 propaghandi is an amazing band, but in my opinion thier lyrics dont really have a superiority over the other. They are both great lyrically and musically, despite being in different genres

[Gurkmassa]

@looshkin66 Please, don't talk in a way that make Flobots sound dumb. They are sending out important messages that some artists of today have forgotten that it's what music should be all about. Music can be used as a tool to express your thoughts so that opportunity should not be thrown away. Flobots have understood that part and they are trying to open the eyes of people and make them rise against all the twisted stuff that's out there.

[looshkin66]

@Gurkmassa I totally agree, however; i merely stated that propaghandi (in my own opinion) were a little more clever in their wording and possibly a little more informed about polotics in general. Flobots are a great and intelligent band, using popular music as a vessel to spread a forward and left wing message is a very admirable thing to do. I like flobots music AND message, i just think propaghandi is a little bit better is all. I honestly recomend them if you like political music.

[looshkin66]

@Gurkmassa And honestly after re reading my post i dont see where i stated that flobots were stupid. I stated that i liked both bands HOWEVER i did like propaghandi more because of their (in my opinion) militant and more rigid left wing stance. Please do not take offense to what im about to say but ; perhaps you should think a little more before you speak. PLEASE, again, do not take offense to this as i am not trying to start an argument, i am merely clairifying what i said earlier :)

[420SlowJ]

we are the children of this fallen nation once great but now weak it is only threw revolution that we can regain greatness we must cast down the heartless rulers and bring about an new age of rule for the people by the people SKY is here and we will not falter in our mission to bring the power back to the meek to the innocent to you our people! remember us.

[albend11]

This isn't an anti government song, its about charity, that is very clear from the video. Stop bitching about the government.

[sniper1014260]

assome song!

[detached]

The system as we know it is coming down. Research the economic crisis, educate yourself on the federal reserve, discover who is in power and things start to become very clear. Wake up planet earth!

[fetkiss]

[jefeINdenver]

hey all, I was at this video shoot at the Gothic. I'm not in the video but spent the day there listening to this song a few dozen times and listening to the Flobots talk about their ideas, fightwithtools org, and how to help those who need help. Rally your forces and take to the streets, pass this message along and you will not go unheard forever.

[ihadsexwithacheetah]

the black dude kills every song

[krisroks117]

@ihadsexwithacheetah you are an idiot.

[azhurelwarrior]

@ihadsexwithacheetah who's the black dude

[pigpig278]

Guys, it's not just rap. It's a message - It's here to tell you that we messed up, and we can fix it. America can. Some people say fuck faith, and I'm with those guys, but Flobots does an amazing job inspiring people to do great things. It's not just music, it's a message. Poetry.

[glados216]

@pigpig278

oh yeah.

rap = not poetry.

rap => can't have a message.

@pigpig278 American. Pfft. They aint the only ones viewing this video.

Im irish trying to look for some good music videos.Lots of Americans think they can boss people around, Also alot of americans act normal. I hate people that likes to boss around. Im sticking up to em COME ON THEN!
