What an inspirational video. It made me feel great inside. I don't come from America, i live in Australia and here its compulsory to vote, i think its a great honor to vote for who runs your country, because it's true no matter what anyone says or thinks one person voting can change everything.

As a proud young American adult I am completely offended by this! I am sick and tired of these damn celebs telling me and the American public who to vote for! Who I vote for is MY personal decision. I will NOT be suaded by them. I know they have opinion like everyone else voting but keep it to yourself and amongs your family and friends. THink for yourselves America! Note to hollywood if you don't want to get bashed by the public then keep your mouths shut.

I thought the second one with Penn and Blake was pretty funny.
btw... i didn't see Ed in the first one, was he really in it or did i miss him?

Theresa, as a proud young American adult, perhaps you should allow celebrities (and anybody else) the freedom to voice their opinion without being told to "keep [their] mouths shut". As such you are allowed to share your annoyances here; but you kind of need to calm down. Unfortunately, sensitivity to being offended is another strong American trait...

Excuse me! I said they can have their opinions like everyone else. We all do. I just can't stand being told who i should vote for.
