She clearly was. Old people can't play videogames. It's like, physically impossible or something.

I've found a way to make my post count go up AND be productive at the same time. Hurrah! I will post their music videos in each comment.

Testify is a pretty good song off of their album The Battle of Los Angeles. This music video is directed by Michael Moore and even features a quick cameo of him at the gas pump. This is by far one of their best (if not the best) music video Rage did.

Freedom, off their first album 'Rage Against the Machine' was the first music video Rage ever made public (they made Bullet in the Head and a very poor Killing in the Name before this, note the length of Zack de la Rocha's hair). It was the #1 music video on MTV for some 12 months. It features a chilling account of the story of Leonard Peltier, a Native American wrongfully imprisoned by the United States government.

Sleep Now In The Fire, also of BoLA was another music video directed by Michael Moore. This film features a concert Rage actually played on Wall Street as well as a spinoff of "Who Wants to Be A Millionaire?". You can see stock broker's enjoying their concert, someone even held up a "Donald Trump for president" sign.

No Shelter was a song released for the Godzilla soundtrack and also released as an extra track on the Australian version of BoLA. The music video in itself is average, although it features some really interesting and inspiring facts. The song and its lyrics are very good.

Guerrilla Radio, another hit song off of BoLA is an anti-sweatshop anti-materialistic music video. In my opinion it's highly overproduced (done by a different director, I don't know why) but the song is always good.

Bulls On Parade, off of the album Evil Empire is my favorite RATM song. The music video is unfortunately sub-par. It's just them in concert and a bunch of people organizing with flags and distributing propaganda. However cool that is, it doesn't need to be in a music video.
