I found the video in a Wisconsin Historical Society site.I was pleasantly surprised to find it and shared on on You tube. The message sounds as though it could have been written by OWS.
At first I didn't understand what he was saying but now it makes sense. Every citizen must participate and fight aggressively against those that corrupt the system so represenative government can be kept. Mr. LaFollette is probably referring to the wealthy and powerful, but it is uncertain. The same is true now as it was then, people must fight to preserve "a government by the people, for the people and of the people."
How could we elect fightingBob, Gaylord Nelson, McCartyy and Walker?

@SleepDeprivedMedia I have no idea. I just spent the last thirty minutes looking for a LaFollette film or speech, and this is all I could find.
