Won't Back Down

OK I'm not a huge Tom Petty fan, but this particular song has had a prominent place in this election so far... with Hillary Clinton blasting it at her rallies at the tail end of the primary season...

So I happened to find these two videos. The first one focuses on Barack Obama's campaign with some really fantastic photos (apparently they are all from google image searching and barackobama.com). Anyway, very powerful:



And the second one focuses on the American story, how we as a people won't back down. It culminates with an excerpt from MLK's speech "I've been to the mountaintop."



"You can stand me up at the gates of hell, but I WON'T BACK DOWN!
No, I'll stand my ground, won't be turned around.
and I'll keep this world from dragging me down
Gonna stand my ground

and I WON'T BACK DOWN!"
