History Starts Now

I saw this video for "World" over Christmas and found it strangely compelling. The back to back scenes of a veiled woman in black casting an election ballot and a veiled woman in black laying an American flag on a grave grabbed my heart. It was a beautiful picture to me of the cost and grief of one to give a measure of freedom and hope to another. Whatever your views of the Iraq War, I think you can appreciate the artistry of these scenes.

I could definitely see one of the Presidential candidates (Edwards?) taking this as their theme song.

What kind of world do you want? History starts now.
