Stand up for kids, not CEOs!

[TobyDiBiase]

I love the kid's face at 1:10

[corinthian313]

how can anybody vote for this!? Except maybe the one percent, but seriously, half this country considers themselves republican!!!!!!

[decimusnola]

It ain't Democrats vs. Republicans or Right vs. Left, folks! It's mega money against YOU and ME.

[jilante]

Here's the thing, I'm not Repubican or Democrat...so when I say this, understand I'm not partial. But let's be 100% honest--the GOP is messing up this country. This is a very comedic yet dramatic example, but nothing is funny about how the Republicans continue to do everything in their power to discredit Obama and any positive effort the Dems have proposed. This is the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!! Not red, not blue, not even white...UNITED

[tattonchantry]

and who will pay for the schools after all the businesses flee the state? The cuts were negotiated down to 1.4%, and the teachers still whined.

[tattonchantry]

and who will pay for the schools after all the businesses flee the state?

[CambridgeHeights]

@tattonchantry Obama will. He's the mesiah

[tonyxBAx]

@Dimitri5755 Amen to that

[EatMAndSml]

@Here2ownU Sooooooo, you're FOR taking breakfast from a child so some rich guy can get tax cuts and not provide any jobs?

[copnite12342]

10 people are republicans

[tonyxBAx]

@copnite12342 and 305 people are NOT smarter than a 5th grader

[samk2785]

Put this on TV please!!! 

[idontknowwhy0]

The basics is this Republicans are the rich people and the Democrats are middle class to lower middle class. The Republican's are obviously not going to lose their money no they are way too greedy to give up their stuff and make people pay for their problems.....

[Numbuh7]

This is definitely the kind of thing that needs to be out there. Isn't it time we realize that our tax money is going towards bombs, bullets, and the whims of the rich? Education funds are the ones being cut! Those and other programs that help the average american family!

[tonyxBAx]

@Numbuh7 Those bombs and bullets are the things keeping America safe, so I'd much rather have my money go towards that than public education

[amritanand1]

shame, shame & they want to come in

power next year > no way!!

[Vospader21]

@Whitevoice14 Either way it's still not fair for a CEO who makes millions of dollars a year, to pay less on income tax then his secretary does.

[BBnanner]

CEOs make money. Dumb kids do not.

[schmuie]

@BBnanner Some CEO's make some things. Some make lots of decisions. Some dismantle companies, fire the employees and sell off what others have built. But many CEO's steal the profits off of businesses that made their money on the work of others. They divest retirement and pension funds, adding to the bottom line "profitablity" for investors. In reality, there is no morality in business, in the profit motive. Capitalism works well where moral and ethical decisions also lead to regulation.

In MN the former Governor Tim Pawlenty balanced the Budgets by taking money from schools. After 8 years of patting himself on the back, he put MN 5 billion in the hole...

[MushroomPictures]

pretty much all messages are propaganda..... it's a general term

[sunmoonstars415]

This does happen though. At my school, they can't afford to print papers for us anymore so each student has to go online and print the worksheets and notes. It's especially hard for a friend of mine who doesn't have computer access, let alone a printer.

[stephterp]

This video is AMAZING! And so true!

[autiepattyann]

I remember clearly when the Republican machine convinced educators to support lottery money because it would fund schools. The educators were supportive, of course. However, what the legislators did NOT mention was that the money raised by the lottery and would be given to the schools would be the same amount that was taken away from the

general fund allocation. No gain to the schools at all.

[wltrsobchak]

Seriously @heather1424!?!? Has anyone clicked the link to her YouTube site?...I find it hard to believe the person in "My Perfume Collection" and "What's in my outlet mall Coach bag" could put together such remarks. Really who's behind the comments? As PopsJones said-Read the House Bill-They do slash school spending by $1BILLION and give corporations huge tax breaks. C'mon @heather1424..."My Perfume Collection" for public viewing...?

[mattborghi]

Awesome!!!!

[heathr1424]

This is propaganda at it's best. You should never take these ads at their face value but investigate the allegations and find the whole truth. I would like to know exactly what bill this ad references. And also consider what MEA has to gain by getting you to protest.

[WindsyShines]

It's Isabella Gielniak at 0:42 !!!!

[psgrenier]

This is what politics is supposed to be about. Well done! Now if we could just get the rest of the unions, the Churches, and that party that used to stand up for ordinary workers to imitate this ad, we might be able to get this country back on track.

[Knotsocommoncents]

Well done! Why aren't parents blasting the republican phone lines yet?



[tonyxBAx]

@Knotsocommoncents Because contrary to popular belief, most parents don't WANT their kids in public schools
