[TreaMonia5221]

[CricketChapman]

"Bill" is unconstitutional.

Those people called the wrong representative.

[AlyMarJulia]

this video is great i first watched it in my social studies class and me and my friend are still singing it because its so damn catchy "Oh i hope and pray that i will, but today i am still just a bill."

[longdarie517]

I hope that bill isn't SOPA

[TaylorSwiftfan9096]

[joeybmn1972]

We listened to this in my civics class at whs and its been in my head ever since great song!

[evand777]

I found Waldo.

[Jewkake1]

"Now I go to the house of representatives and they vote on me"

"If they vote yes, what happens?"

"Then i go to the senate and the whole thing starts all over again"

[amy2916]

[AxelDemyxFanGirl]

[LOTR4ever1]

It's sad that the Family Guy parody has more views than this.....makes me sad....

[mlee2001]

Danm!, is THAT how it works?! Im 43 and this just sunk in! They explain it well, for the young, or the older, simple minded (like me)-:)

[SuperCheetosman]

Horrible resolution.

[sdoran856]

@SuperCheetosman I agree.

[MrHunter3101]

i wonder if this will stick around forever.....

[lilwaffles714]

If u died tonight would u.go to heaven? JESUS loves u repent before its too late, message me for more info if u wanna be saved

[LOTR4ever1]

@lilwaffles714 Gee, thanks for the info. [/scarcasm]

[HalcyonicRepose]

If they remade this today, they would have to include lobbyist-hookers fawning over "Bill" , and they would whispers sweet-nothings in his ear, changing the text of his legislation to favor their special interest.

(Oh, and they would pay him, not the other way around.)

[TheOmega980]

Used to watch this in 3rd grade its still cool!!!

[dawgalova]

How did that kid make it pass security???

[sdannunzio]

lol my teacher showed us this when i was in 4th grade now im in 8th!!and im 14

[paloozapoofshhh]

bill as a dollar? :|?

[HamHamCountDown]

Im Just a bill and im poping my pills on capital hill (Hes Poping Advil) :D

[birdyblair]

im in the 4th grade and my class luvs this song =)

[sdannunzio]

@birdyblair u have to be the 13 to be on you tube so why are u even here?

[birdyblair]

@sdannunzio my mom made my account and think about all the five year olds on this website

[sdannunzio]

@birdyblair just because u see a fice year old on you tube it doesnt mean u can!!

[TherealRNO]

@birdyblair: Your mom violated the site's rules.

[birdyblair]

@TherealRNO she moniters it so she runs my account sooooo dummy!!!!

[TherealRNO]

@birdyblair: It doesn't matter. She violated the site's rules by allowing a kid onto the site. Sure, it's good she monitors what you see, but still, you could stumble across comments and discussions not meant for your age group, because most people here are 13 and over. I myself am a 26 year old male adult, so...

[kittykat24xo]

@TherealRNO i am 22, and while i agree with what you say 100%...she did say she is 14, above the age required to join this site...

[TherealRNO]

@kittykat24xo: No, she didn't. She didn't even state her age. She even said that her mom made the account and monitors it.

[raydio60]

This actually made understanding congress so much easier for us kids back in the 70's. Maybe this is what kids need today, Congress 101.....

[TORNxBigxBro]

i have to memorize this for extra credit on my history test :D

[promiseIsaih60]

I wish they did teach kids this in school. I remember the only way I heard about this was as a little kid thru this cartoon. Sad. Hope things have changed~

[heckonwheels1]

This bill is pure pork. It was sponsored by the railroad sign lobby and the road crossing worker's lobby.

[BlkAngel1746]

I'm just a bill...cause that's all i do is pay bills,lol.

[Svhsgirl]

Cartoons were like this back in the day? Today we have Hannah Montana and sponge bob...will our brain expire?

[kennycody135]

my school is doing this as a play this is the song i have to do as an audtion piece.

[nicky2coats]

one lousy gruesome school bus train disaster and now we're stuck with this knee-jerk legislation. damn liberals

[Rushthatspeaks]

@nicky2coats lol

[sparkles5x2]

oh no OH YEASSSSSSSSS

[Gettinghitonattheban]

... You need a law to tell people bus drivers to stop at a railroad crossing? I mean, call me a libertarian, but I that's just ridiculous.

[OhHeyIdiot1]

FUCK U BILL.

[iroxlol123]

thumbs up if you agree that the bill is just adorable when he is sittin on the steps movin his little feet ^.^ sorry if that was random i just think the bill is ADORABLE lol

[mygoldfishrocks]

Oops..meant to write "something else that's going to be stuck in my head" darn swype making me sound like I'm foreign...

[mygoldfishrocks]

I'm just a bill! Great something else that's going to be stick in my head got 2 weeks...

[hodmb]

Can you see his earmarks?



[gemini1415]

haha! we watched this in our AP US and Govt class XDD

[Srd1126]

@juniorsayers08 ATTENTION ADVERTISERS--YOU TOO CAN MARKET TO THIS PRIME DEMOGRAPHIC!

[Srd1126]

@juniorsayers08n yup, another liberal who can do nothing but call names and use foul language. NEWS FLASH: Obama is about the biggest racist in the USA. And if whites voted for McCain for being white as much as blacks voted for Obama, Obama would have just won 3 electoral votes. You sound like a racist yourself therel.

[singingstar56]

my teacher sung this to my whole class haha.

[billmilliganhisself]

The bane of my childhood...

[MrVideodude17]

AAAAHHH IT'S IN MY HEAD NOOO!!!!!!

[WulFe799]

my civics teacher showed us today

[meganlikesbrownies]

and my computer teacher says this is catchy

[TheHblilshopaholic]

myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyy nigaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[Srd1126]

The problem today is too many people say, "there ought to be a law." Maybe in 2013 President Gingrich will challenge congress to pass ZERO new laws and in fact get rid of some of the oppressive ones we alreay have, in 2013. One can only hope! (Though I will always love this song!)

[Grindmen25]

@Srd1126 Gingrich is not gonna be president you dumbass

[Srd1126]

@Grindmen25 You're right, it might be Sarah Palin.

[Grindmen25]

@Srd1126 Noone's gonna vote for that idoit

[Srd1126]

@Grindmen25 Either Newt or Sarah would tear Obama apart in a debate. Unlike McCain, they will want to win.

[Grindmen25]

@Srd1126 Obama can out debate Newt and Sarah easily. if Palin gets the nomination for president then Obama is guranteed a second term

[Srd1126]

@Grindmen25 You are delierious-Obama can barely say his own name unless he is reading a teleprompter.

[Grindmen25]

@Srd1126 Im not delirious the only one that is delirious is you. Especially if you think someone like Sarah Palin is a valid candidate. Obama can out debate anyone hes out debated Hillary Clinton and John McCain and beat them handily. Maybe you should just shut your mouth and turn on some Glenn Beck so you can stay brainwashed you fool!

[Srd1126]

@Grindmen25 McCain didn't want to win, that was clear to anybody. Obama left himself open on so many things that McCain just refused to attack him on. And in 2012 Obama will have to defend the fact that he has bungled everything he has done. Of course, he could just call people names like you and most other liberals seem to do.

[Miracle490d]

@Grindmen25 yeah Obama was a great debater. I believed him. Too bad he's not as good at delivering on the promises as he was at talking about them. I'm really enjoying my medical care now, since he got that insurance for me-NOT! Lucky theres a few high paid doctors charitable enough to work 1day a week free at least at 1clinic. You'll get more from decent people than you will from the government.Single people without kids don't count for much. We could ROT before getting medicaid. Thanks Obama!

[Srd1126]

@hotlittledago don't bother the cops, let some vets do it

[RonnocTheAwesome]

2:31 "NO"

[Kongregater3]

"I'm still just a bill..."

[dude19288]

the messed up part of this is that the bill was to legalize abortion, thats what law he came to be..........

[Bacchae30]

@dude19288 Yay for abortion! Abort, abort, abort! :D

[hockeyislife877]

awesome graphics



[VZGproductions]

OH YEAH!!!!  lol

[DeathGodRiku]

ah the good days of school house rock

[footballgod4u]

Man these where great for learning a lot better than what we have today.

[MrRaveninja1]

@footballgod4u now is even better they got music videos of awesome music now not a sad bill on the steps of congress

[SuperKaitie333]

Yeah the simpsons take was HILARIOUS. But still- I'd rather watch this than any other crap on TV today.

(P.S. 1:24 It's McCain and Obama)

[RazorCamel]

LOL at the the "OH YA!"

[syncrow76]

I love the take off to this in the SIMPSONS, check it!

[MrPilberrydoughboy]

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ring

[cebratton71]

Thank you for providing these clips. They were amazing when I was growing up, and they still are.For the rest who are trying to make this into a political commentary, just enjoy them-they are correct. Read your constitution and take some government classes-this is the proper procedure and we need to teach our young people the process to return to it! I come here periodically to watch these Schoolhouse Rock videos to be reminded of such things and just to enjoy.

[Rhondi8]

Belongs is the time capsule of all times.

[Corntown]

The funny thing is that most Bills are created by corporate lobbyist, not normal people. Not really that funny now that I think about it.

[ConRyan107]

wow this tells absolutely nothing major info of how a bill becomes a law at all >:I dam school house rock you taugh me when i was young but you can't help me on my american government 12th grade final >:I

[hannah5518]

i like this

[primus628]

@timtaylor97044 After seeing this as a kid, it is no wonder so many are disillusioned over todays processes

[FITCamaro]

Too bad they don't actually teach this anymore in school.

But then when the president says that the "process" isn't important, why bother right?

[stravis1964]

OBAMA DID IT!!!!

[JohnMarden]

"Gee Bill, what if it's an emergency in war time? Is it a long process to pass a bill then??"

THat is why the Preident is called "Commander in Chief". He/She has more power when War is declared by Congress.

Those old white Founding Fathers thought thas all through.

[awsomepivotstudios]

i just herd on the news thatt on a video of this (a diffrent person who posted the song) had alot of comments saying demons pass!? wierd

[bigsranch]

Evidently, the "vote" part was not correct. Right, Rep. Slaughter ?

[xpteam50]

Gee Bill, what if it's an emergency in war time? Is it a long process to pass a bill then??

[danecookntwilightr0k]

i luv this one but y does the bill look like hes on dope?????? not to be mean i luv this song but its lik wow ive never noticed it before and i was wondering

[cityboys12]

i like the other ones

[hinata8908]

this is my maine coon cat's theme song when he walks down the hallway

[MultiDogLover101]

haha thats so funny hehe =^+^= :) niceee

[PatchesRips]

@mcrobsesser003

"Chill out"... "declining temperatures"... I get it. :D

[bamitslanis]

lmfao me & my friends love this song, we watched it at school and my teacher let us watch it like 50 timez but she got annoyed OH HOW I HOPE AND [RAY BUT TODAY I AM STILL JUST A BILL lol

[BriBriTube9]

@bamitslanis dats my fav part of da song

[911insidejo8]

Okay, sorry.

[911insidejo8]

Look my friend, the Univ of E Anglia database was hacked. The Climate Research Unit is the chief institution the UN uses for their ridiculous info on man-made global warming propaganda and it is admitted they were hiding the decline in temperatures, destroying scientists not playing along

So my recommendation to you: Do a little research on these issues instead of just calling me a conspirator because you don't like what I say and are too intellectually lazy to give a substantiated counter

[PatchesRips]

"they were hiding the decline in temperatures, destroying scientists not playing along"

And WHY would they want to do this, exactly...? If it's about funding, why not just say these "declining" temperatures were man-made and get funding for THAT?

Honestly... have you thought this through past the villain-twirling-his-mustache phase?

[911insidejo8]

H.R. 2454.

[AyyShunnBwoii]

what are the steps on how a bill becomes a law?

[galnhus56]

Many great School House Rock cartoons, but I think the most popular were 'Conjunction Junction' and 'I'm Just a Bill'.

[yianimal]

what's with the paragraph long comments...i wouldn't have thought such a quanit video could have sparked so much political heat.

[ivylicous11]

really you people neeeeed tooo stop putting mean comments if you do not like it.... do not put anything!!!

[Srd1126]

They forgot the part where they give hundreds on millions to a Senator's state so she votes your way for a health care bill that nation does not want.

[g3m4r]

@Srd1126 who says the nation doesnt want it? think about the thousands of people who are dying beacause they don't have the money to pay for health insuance and medicin....im pretty damn sure those people want it

[Srd1126]

polls show the nation doens't want the disaster that is Obamacare. Thousands dying? No proof of that. And if they want health care they can just buy it--heck, Obama will throw you in prison if you don't buy it should Obamacare become law. Check rasmussen, just 38% want it.

[g3m4r]

let me guess..you've been checkin poles takin by heartless conservatives such as yourself....and you want proof of people dying? look around you... oh but your too good for that arent you...also the people cant get the health insurence beacause they are denied beacause of thier preexsisting conditions...the healthcare plan stops companys from doing that....and under the plan you arent being forced to get the government plan..you can stay with your own if youwan to...check your facts next time

[Srd1126]

you must be ab Obama voter because otherwise you would know it is POLLS and they are taken by independent companies. I didn't say you had to buy the government plan, but if you don't want any coverage too bad you can go to jail. Never before has the governement said you mjust buy something from private companies. Also hospitals are required to take emergency room patients so people aren't "dying because they don't have coverage."

I know my facts, you should learn yours.

[g3m4r]

@Srd1126 yes but many are relutant to go to the emergency rooms or even regualr doctot\r checkups because THEY CANT PAY FOR IT! and its not just emergny rooms and shit its the prices of medicins that they cannot pay for or live without! And what do you have against obama? at least he didnt get us into a unecessary war like your oh so amazng president bush

[Srd1126]

Well guess what--life isn't free and you can't expect someone else to pay your way for medical or anything else. What I have against Obama is he is a socialist and racist who has very radical people around him. I'll take Bush any day. Iraq was a just war and will be shown to be the right decision just like Korea. I can see from your replies you have little knwolege of economics or history and will give Obama a pass for anything. Goodbye.

[g3m4r]

@Srd1126 Well this just goes to show how watching Fox your entire life can make you so uniformed its not funny.... Iraq would of been a good choice if Bush had a PLAN in action...now Obama is picking up his mess and you are so ignorant you dont even give him credit.... and the 'radical people' include republicans too because his cabniet is bipartisin...and ha little knowlage? your the one talking to a 13 year old girl like shes an adult

[g3m4r]

@g3m4r *uninformed haha sorry disfucntional keyboard

[911insidejo8]

They don't care! They do what they want:

75% want out of the Middle East. We stay!

94% are opposed to NAFTA. It continues!

99% want closed borders. They remain open!

And now climategate broke November 20th, illustrating how the predatory ruling class tampered with data to make man-made global warming appear legit so they could tax, tax, tax us into poverty (H.R. 2454) and CNN finally reported it on November 25th

This is the new freedom! This is the change we voted for I guess

[suspekt29]

They should have made this more accurate by having the bill strapped to the Lobbyists back. I wonder if the kid at 1:26 got his first taste of democracy by hearing all the fluff they attached to his friend Bill that had nothing to do with the initial proposal.

[geekconnection]

dont pass that bill for CANADIAN health care in america!

[grunggy]

Oh brother........it's nothing like the Canadian system.

[S1L3NC3RX2]

Doesn't this sound like BILL from King of the Hill?

[hardplayproductions]

wow

[xvolcom893x]

dont get loud with me, i rember i belive one won me a right of free speech

[Kelski1998]

Love it. Oh how I wish that was true these days now some asshole who wants to be a socialist pig instead of ruling by the constitution finds it more necessary to ram through bils that he knows the public (who elected him in yes through the EC) finds unfair we better reclaim this and damn quick

[bkto22]

F'IN OL SCHOOL

[drummer703]

I sure hope that's not Obama's healthcare bill.

[wingnutwi]

Except nowadays it's not some folks back home calling their congressman and saying hey we need a law. Organized national political parties, wealthy special interest groups, and those that lead them, tell the congressman what they need and what to vote yes on, because they know better than the folks back home.

[michealolague86]

i like it

[mzbobbi]

I'm just a bill... sitting here on capitol hill...my wife works here lol

[fatpatlives1998]

straight classic

[tjstevens99]

[SimonB198207]

'...there are a lot of flag burners who have got too much freedom, i wanna make it legal for policeman to beat, 'cos there's limits to our liberty, least i hope and pray that there are, 'cos those liberal freaks go too far.'

[littledrummer432]
