1	Donald S. Miller 2 months ago from Vancouver, WA. I am teaching a Seniors' course at Clark College on "Propaganda." After segments featuring Hitler, Goebbels and various seductive politicians, I knew that I needed to demonstrate that propaganda can also be a positive, uplifting force. Thank you for providing some highly polished and persuasive examples for my final session.

8	Linda 9 months ago from Kansas As a Mom I try to encourage my kids to always talk to everyone in school... you CAN and DO make a difference when you are kind, plus it sets an example for everyone else around you. A simple "Hi" can change the world... or at least make a huge difference in a really bad day.
9	Hal K 9 months ago from Kansas I work with young people and have shown this video as how through a simple gesture you can have a positive impact on people. It's also how I conduct myself with people I work with. Thank you for producing this. :)
10	Elizabeth Pilola 9 months ago from Ontario, CA This commercial was perfect timing when this was copied and pasted to my facebook profile. I think I am going to start a CAUSE in my School District. Special request to all kids attending school. If you see someone who is struggling to make friends or being bullied because they don't have many friends or may seem different because they are shy or not as pretty or not dressed in the most "in" clothes, PLEASE step up. Say "hi" or at least smile at them in the hallway. You never know what that person might be facing outside of school. Your kindness might just make a BIG difference in someone's life!! This commercial has been posted on facebook to help make a difference!
