Reechard, rahuu and I was defending the kid. I hope you didn’t include us as “grouches” :-/

I like to see a kid that supports america. I think it means that his parents are probably telling him that right sort of things.

what a bunch of grouches.

Back to the topic… My front door is about 20 feet from my polling place. I think I’ll lose my citizenship if I don’t vote in this election.

yea, that kid pretty much proves how stupid and pointless it is to make kids(and only kids) say the pledge of allegiance. they don’t understand what it means–it’s just rote memorization and nothing more.

the video is cute, but i’m tired of being bashed over the head with the voting thing. my vote doesn’t actually count, thanks to the electoral college, and after 2000, i have no plans on voting again until we move to direct elections, like most of the rest of the civilized world.

I see where the “nationalistic indoctrination” comment might come from. I, too, feel a little uneasy watching very young children pledging allegiance to any institution or conception (flag, country, god, etc.) aside from candy and playing. And recess.

It’s not any less creepy because it’s an American flag rather than another country’s.

What do you mean, indoctrination?
I didn’t hear any candidate being endorsed. All the kid said was “VOTE” That is not indoctrination, its civic duty.

Definition:
Duty – noun, plural -ties.
1. something that one is expected or required to do by moral or legal obligation.
2. the binding or obligatory force of something that is morally or legally right; moral or legal obligation.

d, yeah how awful to encourage kids to love America, and love the fact we have the right to vote. You are absolutely right… we should, in fact, tell him how terrible America is, and why the whole world hates us.

(Personally I think this is cute. The kid is a little annoying, but what four-year-old isn’t a little annoying?)
