"I pledge to be a servant of our president." - 3:54 into the embedded video.

Here are the
facts about the "I Pledge" video -
if anyone is interested.

We
never showed a video/movie without having previewed it and agreeing to the appropriateness of its use to the subject of discussion.
However - IMO - this video is an appropriate video to be used for a high school level speech, government, or film course to engage in an age appropriate discussion of point of view, the influence of Hollywood or Madison Avenue on our culture, the use of subliminal and overt messaging in advertising, etc.

So what is President Zero going to communicate to my Kids?

Ref posts #3 and #18, and

Maybe the Secretary of Education should have written his letter to school Principals telling them what the POTUS was going to focus on in Klingan so Americans could understand what he is planning to communicate to the students. 
FWIW - here in North Texas school districts are leaving it up to the individual school principals and classroom teachers themselves to choose whether or not they want to engage in the POTUS' message to the students on 8 Sep 09.
And so it goes...
