Annoying, super-annoying "music." Please remove and repost.

I don't have the patience to edit the clip once again. Maybe later. But as I said to mistermoen: "Check out my sources..." If you want to see the clips without the background, or one could call it, foreground music.

[mistermoen]

No, this music does suck. It's terrible, and it detracts from Chomsky's speaking.

[olepunh]

@mistermoen Check out my sources and the problem will be solved.

WHY DON'T LET THE PERSON SPEAK AND GET RID OF THE MUSIC ??????????????

People need only study the bills that pertain to them. There are way to many frivolous bills in the first place.

[sfafasfasfsa]

Cause its working so well in california. Direct democracy mean less democracy people don't have time to study every bill. Its a good theory horrible practice

[sinsarcasmo]

Terrible choice of music. It´s too loud and over-powers the voice of Chomsky.

[voltairinedecleyre66]

@GTXMAN I still can't hear Chomsky without the music.
