Steamwake - the "snippets" your talking about are not related to this. Those snippets - and I have heard the entire thing - is something that has been produced by none other than Oprah through a company she owns and it has been disbursed to some schools for viewing by the students.

In it people make "pledges", like working to save the environment, volunteering more in their community, etc. Some are common sense good things, others raise eyebrows - like "I pledge to serve Barack Obama for the good of society". Of course - at the end - the students get a "I know you have a pledge - whats your pledge? Huh, whats your pledge?" while it fades in a picture of BO.

Now - I find that OVERLY OFFENSIVE and BLATENT INDOCTRINATION, but BO and the administration didn't, to my knowledge, request, approve or condone such a thing. Therefore I don't hold BO in any way responsible. Oprah on the other hand.........
