    This is a bad pledge, when I cannot pledge to be a servant to my Lord in school but I can pledge to be a servant to the President. Phooy Obama is just a person not a diety.

    For goodness sake, if the guy can convince a few more students to stay in school and start caring about their education, give him a chance.

    Check out http://detentionslip.org for this, and more crazy headlines from our schools.

    So hall moniter, the end justifies the means?... I don't think so. The carbon footprint of those celebrities is huge. And they will NOT reduce it. They will NOT give up their lifestyles. They are hypocrites, plain and simple.

    He is the PRESIDENT! Regardless of whether or not a few celebrities put their face and words behind him, don't you think it is important to mention that for once kids actually here people telling that they care?

    'Here' for 'hear'??? Hall moniter, go back to school. Stop worrying about other kids and get an education for yourself.

    This was a disgusting attempt by RICH LIBERALS in an attempt to push their liberal thought process upon young and impressionable minds. It is so easy for these rich elitists to sit back and push their agenda upon normal hard working people when they know they will NEVER have to sacrifice what we do on a daily basis.

    Usually when i see the Messiah on TV i immediately switch channels to spare my kids, but this time (if the video is not banned) our innocent kids will be forced to watch this nauseous creepy propaganda reminding 1933 Hitler Jugend

    I think you guys have just misinterpreted what they're trying to say to us... the main thing is, "We should start THE CHANGE within ourselves so that everything would follow then..."

    they're using as an example the luxurious lifestyle of celebrities because they know that being in hollywood is kinda like a vice. Everything is actually a vice... that it could break everything you have right now in one glitch. well, that's rational.

    one thing i didn't like about this I pledge thing... The "I pledge to be the servant of our president" yeah, no one would ever love to be a servant of a human, so ashton and the girl [i don't know who she is] is actually lying. Lol

    What saddens me is that people have totally missed the point of this video. It really isn't a pledge to Obama, and if you watch it again it's only mentioned twice, once humurously. What the video attempts to do, and where it would succeed if people would just let it, is in pledging to contribute in those facets of American life that are so often overlooked.

    You all are sending your children the wrong message - that we must find the flaws and mistakes in everything because we are afraid to what good we can do. This message isn't blantantly political, it's barely. What it is is desperate. People see the things wrong with our present-day and are attempting in their own viral-media way to show us that we can all do small things to contribute to a greater world.

    The nausea of today's American political landscape is your fault and your fault only people. Let children decide for themselves in what way they can contribute to this country.

    I tried to watch this and listen to the good in it. And there is good; good ideas, good intentions... but I will tell you this. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the UNITED States of America. I will not plegde to a man, because he is just that. I serve my God, not you, Obama.
