I feel that it is a message for a younger generation (possibly ages 18 - 25) that have never even bothered to register. I think the shock value of the saying, "Do not vote," is an attention getter. Once they tune in and see the stars, which are diverse in age, race, and stereotype, and hear the possibilities of what they can do with the power of one vote. I believe this is intended to encourage voter registration, not "talk down" to people. They didn't come out and say who they were supporting, either. I agree; the majority, if not all of the celebs, are probably left supporters. However, I don't believe they are influencing people to come to "the dark side." Cool commercial.

Do you honestly believe that this video was bipartisan? If this video was bipartisan, show me one person in this video that has publicly supported a conservative stance on any issue. If you can show me just one, I will update the post and note this bipartisanship in the video. This video was as transparent as Barack Obama's tax plan (aka. Marxist wealth redistribution). Sometimes people's intentions are found in what they don't say. Anne,
Are you serious?

They're trying to affect some bipartisan good. Maybe they didn't use this platform to the zealous right but they nor did they offer a single word in support of the left either. The only partisanship here are your speculations about who each participant will vote for. Don’t be an asshole. They’re trying to affect some bipartisan good.
