Offering up a tune which was debuting at #38 on both the 2/26/00 Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and Modern Rock Tracks chart. It's by Rage Against the Machine and was directed by Michael Moore. Check out the image on the video at the 1:04 mark... someone is holding a 2016 political candidate's sign 16 years too early! Who would have thought Michael More could have predicted the future? By the way, my posting of this video is not an endorsement of that candidate... it's just interesting to see this featured 16 years ago. Here is Rage Against the Machine with "Sleep Now In The Fire": "A band named 'The Machine Rages On'..."

I think that person (I'll try to keep the name a secret) was planning a run in 2000, or there were rumors the person was running. SNL was joking about the possibility at the time, and The Simpsons did the same.
