1 Neil Young
Young has been using His music to drive home anti-war and pro ecology themes for nearly 40 years now.
2 Rage Against The Machine
They are about as political as a band can get
3 Black Flag
Rollins is very political and used their music to get His points across
4 The MC5
No one has mentioned them but politics was pretty much their stock in trade
5 John Lennon
Apologies to the answerer above Me but Lennon was as politically left wing as they come and his music was chock full of politics.
6 Ted Nugent
Terrible Ted is unusual amongst rockers in that his politics are decidedly right wing instead of left.
7 Country Joe and The Fish
Don't think they were political? listen to their song "Super Bird"
Those are the best examples of Rockers with a political bent I know of Barbara

The artist doing it the longest is without a doubt the great Neil Young!
From "Ohio" in 1970 following the Kent State Massacre up through 2006 when he released the "Living with War" album which has numerous songs criticizing George Bush and the Iraq war.
