@@enigmaz9 I imagine they fell victim to the fear mongering the left is doing. So it's either we keep our democracy with Kamala, or go into a dictatorship with trump because 2025!

Like seriously, project 2025 was floating around for months and nobody was talking about it until they saw that the voters on the left fell into the fear mongering)
It is, though. We're at a point of global connectivity that our elections do affect each other. Vote for good MPs and leaders in your part of the world and we'll try to do the same here.
Hamilton is surprisingly relevant to British politics currently- I swear Labour heard “talk less, smile more. Never let them know what you’re against or what you’re for” and took it to heart. Also John Adams is basically Sunak “he’s that little guy who spoke to me” “they will tear each other into pieces Jesus Christ this will be fun” “John Adam’s shat the bed, I love the guy but he’s in traction”
@@jenniferm4985 Exactly. Last I checked the British were still in NATO, and the fate of that organization is currently still at the whims of US foreign policy.
I’m here November sixth after the results. This hits hard after knowing one third of our country didn’t exercise their right to vote. I’m worried for our country.
can you explain what is moving about this? Someone saying ‘ go and vote’ moves you? Do you cry when you get a leaflet saying vote?I can only assume there are so many bots who don’t understand emotion
I’m going to keep it real - I’m old. I’m jaded. I have voted in a lot of presidential elections. My family has been on this continent since the mid- 1600s, traced back on three of my four grandparents’ family trees. We have proudly served this country, including in the American Revolution. We have active duty military members in the fam today. There’s not a lot that makes me tear up. But this did. Participation is so important this year above all. Thank you for reminding us we cannot throw away our vote. So well done. 🗳️❤
Well said. I could have written this comment. Most of my ancestors came into the country between 1600 and 1715. We had ancestors who fought for freedom in the revolutionary war, and ancestors who fought against slavery in the civil war. Let's do them all proud and keep the flame of freedom alive, and put down this shadow of authoritarianism that is coming over the world.

Well, feel free to channel your revived Hamilton Phase to help support others who can vote in the lead-up to the election and on the actual date then. That also helps!
@@lonniecynthYeah because clearly people can just skip a couple years of their life... Maybe you're from a time where that works but in this age it's not very common for people to simply skip years of their life and suddenly become 18.
Yeah! Do what they say!! (Currently doing that on Twitter and spreading this video with the tag #IMNOTTHROWINGAWAYMYVOTE (I’ve gone crazy supporting ppl who can vote and trying to get them to register, I ain’t 18 yet!!)
Love the sentiment behind this but I gotta say, as a person from another country it feels very dystopian how you have to do this to get people to vote. I get it though! Best of luck and hope y'all got the message. Vote!! The General US Elections have an impact way beyond the borders of your country. History has its eyes on you, as they say. Or sing.
Yea it’s not great. I’m from the south in the US and if you live in certain areas that vote a certain way, they make it extremely inconvenient and discourage voting.
It feels that way because it is, sadly. The message here is optimistic: the system the founding fathers set up isn't perfect, but it's endured this long. However, the devil has been in the details for years, mainly in the covert and overt ways some powers that be try to undermine voting. In some states, it's made easy and convenient to register and to cast your ballot. In other states, it's a death of a thousand cuts that leads to apathy, especially among younger voters. ...And younger voters tend to skew more progressive.. The cast of Hamilton is pretty perfectly positioned for boosting the signal, but you start to see it all over in a voting year. Heartfelt calls to vote, to register, to help people get to the polls in areas where you need to jump through hoops to do so. Lucky me, I just have to remind my neighbors that early voting is super easy here.
I feel like a lot of it comes from boomers and adults saying younger ppp, especially newly turned 18, are "too young to understand politics" and so push down on the idea young adults should vote For me, my family never told me anything and when i was a senior in HS i was given like 4? Months to learn everything about our government and voting before i graduated. So many ppl say "kids" shouldnt get in politics and they infantilize 18 y/o or 20 when its convenient to stop them from "voting stupidly". Its a way of voter suppression thats systemic as if we as adults shouldnt be involved or are too stupid to understand our world. Ppl become compliant with this idea when its not actually shown or spoken to with us. Its why things like this tbh? Im all for. It reaches out to ppl who might be in this group who arent exposed to its impact. The downfall of society is never an act voted in, but a road paved by those who are too ignorant to stop it or pushed to the side.
We get it. But many don't, or won't, or can't. Even in our important 2020 election, 60 million - about one third - of U.S. voters didn't vote. Avoiding it is too easy and, in many states, voting is made too hard by electeds who don't want voters to vote. Perhaps someday we'll join advanced nations, that require their citizens to vote.
@@MrSinister718 Omg can you grow up and leave if you're so triggered? This is a place for positivity and kindness, something you clearly don't value in this world.
This is Hamilton. The play and its cast have never claimed to be neutral nonpartisan (…remember when Pence went to see the play?) Besides, they are not discouraging anyone from going in and casting their ballot the other way, if anything the message I get is they’d rather you did vote differently from them than not vote at all.
As a civics teacher, I made sure my students understood that voting is the way they make their voice heard on local, state, and federal levels. That, regardless of whether they were Republican, Democrat, or anywhere in between (funny enough, most of them were) that choosing not to vote would remove their basis for complaining about results. I was very proud of my students, conservative and liberal, who left more prepared to contribute to our great country.
I mean, they should go hand in hand, everyone should be informed so everyone can vote. I know it might be easier said than done, but the information of the parties involved should be easily accessible, right? Especially in the era of the internet and news media?
As a minor you can develop your political views and as soon as you are eligible you can register to vote! Not having a vote yet is a great time to debate yourself and others and decide what you actually want to vote for. That way when the time comes, you won't be frozen in inaction or overwhelmed
@@angelexis2Yeah I already made my decision which is Kamala Harris. But I'm unfortunately powerless and have to rely on the adults of America to vote for the right person so people like me won't be affected by Project 2025. If people vote for Trump every minority might as well leave the country especially queer people. I doubt that enough people will vote for Harris because many people today are still dumb and conservative. So, if Project 2025 does happen (which wouldn't be surprising) then I can't wait for people to go "why are so many queer kids & adults committing s*icide out of nowhere?" Or "why are women dying from pregnancy complications?" And "why are so many people racist?" Like they didn't cause the problem of restricting talks of the LGBTQ, race theory, and wanting to ban abortion. Even after the debate with Harris and Trump, considering Donald Trump apparently has plot armor we're probably still screwed. I can ponder all day about who I want to vote for but it wouldn't make a difference. And this year matters a lot! But yeah I'm not getting my hopes up for our species.
@____________________________a but a mindset like this is partly what contributes to political polarization. I think we should develop ideas views and values for ourselves, and as we do so, treat other people with respect and hear them out. We might find many people's actual views might not be strict red or blue but more complicated, moderate or something else entirely because humans and their experiences are unique and complex. And people with differing or even seemingly incompatible views can talk civil about it and might even learn from each other, or at least that gives this country a better shot at improving its issues. If more diverse minds come together.
This is a perfect explanation of why I support mandatory voting. Here in Australia, if you don't vote you get fined. This aims to make sure that everyone's voice is heard, and the elected representative represents the majority.
Yeah it's a totally different world out there. No democracy sausages. I like the mandatory voting but I think we are one of only 2 (?) countries in the world who do it. In theory, because it's mandatory, they have to make it as easy as possible for everyone to do ❤
G'day, fellow Aussie! Another thing I really appreciate about our system is that voting day is always on Saturday, which means that people can be in-person at the polling places without worrying about negotiating with their workplaces. The Australian Electoral Commission also does amazing work.
That's the thing though...here in America, the greatest country on earth, it is our RIGHT to vote if we so choose. We aren't FORCED to like you are. It's a little something we call FREEDOM
@@KoreanKowboy93 I personally prefer to see it as an obligation to count everyone's vote (even if it's blank/informal) rather than the freedom from compulsion that the US has. But I can understand why people don't like being forced to do something.
i really admire and appreciate that they didn’t talk anything about the actual people running, but just about the voting system That’s a very smart way of doing a song like this, especially with how one sided so many people can be now a days
@@hayleighelaine5671 Bias is always going to affect how you communicate, but at the end of the day this is still fairly open. It's not like they're just saying "Everyone go vote democrat or you are evil" lol.
i was already so ready to vote and now i have a hamilton song to listen to on the way to the polls??? we are making history folks! your vote MATTERS, please vote!!! 💙
I love this, especially since the message is to simply vote. They didn't push one side or the other, they didn't hate on either side, they just want people to get out and vote, and I love that!
Really? What song were you listening to? 2:10 Do you think “we’ve won each time our rights were gambled” means they are voting for protecting the lives of children who are threatened by abortion? I don’t think so. I think they want their special murder rights against their children protected instead.
I was so discouraged at the state of our country and honestly decided not to vote at all. But after seeing this, I’m just so inspired to do so, thank you Hamilton cast for making this!
Agreed. The music is well-done, and they know how to sing, but the lyrics? Do they think we're that stupid? That we wouldn't vote in the first place? smh
Smiling ear to ear. 😁 Definitely not throwing away my shot. I keep checking the rolls to make sure they haven't been purged. Counting down to October 9th for early voting.
No Matter who you vote for just GO VOTE! (as long as your a citizen of the country and eligible) The only way were red white and blue is is both red and blue show up.

@@lonniecynthYeah because clearly people can just skip a couple years of their life... Maybe you're from a time where that works but in this age it's not very common for people to simply skip years of their life and suddenly become 18.
@@ThatPersonNamedJune skill issue. I know many people that were born 18
Yeah! Do what they say!! (Currently doing that on Twitter and spreading this video with the tag #IMNOTTHROWINGAWAYMYVOTE
(I’ve gone crazy supporting ppl who can vote and trying to get them to register, I ain’t 18 yet!!)
Love the sentiment behind this but I gotta say, as a person from another country it feels very dystopian how you have to do this to get people to vote. I get it though! Best of luck and hope y'all got the message. Vote!! The General US Elections have an impact way beyond the borders of your country. History has its eyes on you, as they say. Or sing.
Yea it’s not great. I’m from the south in the US and if you live in certain areas that vote a certain way, they make it extremely inconvenient and discourage voting.
It feels that way because it is, sadly. The message here is optimistic: the system the founding fathers set up isn't perfect, but it's endured this long. However, the devil has been in the details for years, mainly in the covert and overt ways some powers that be try to undermine voting. In some states, it's made easy and convenient to register and to cast your ballot. In other states, it's a death of a thousand cuts that leads to apathy, especially among younger voters. ...And younger voters tend to skew more progressive..
The cast of Hamilton is pretty perfectly positioned for boosting the signal, but you start to see it all over in a voting year. Heartfelt calls to vote, to register, to help people get to the polls in areas where you need to jump through hoops to do so. Lucky me, I just have to remind my neighbors that early voting is super easy here.
I feel like a lot of it comes from boomers and adults saying younger ppp, especially newly turned 18, are "too young to understand politics" and so push down on the idea young adults should vote
For me, my family never told me anything and when i was a senior in HS i was given like 4? Months to learn everything about our government and voting before i graduated.
So many ppl say "kids" shouldnt get in politics and they infantilize 18 y/o or 20 when its convenient to stop them from "voting stupidly".
Its a way of voter suppression thats systemic as if we as adults shouldnt be involved or are too stupid to understand our world.
Ppl become compliant with this idea when its not actually shown or spoken to with us. Its why things like this tbh?
Im all for. It reaches out to ppl who might be in this group who arent exposed to its impact.
The downfall of society is never an act voted in, but a road paved by those who are too ignorant to stop it or pushed to the side.
Getting about 170 million people to do the same thing on the same day is pretty tough. Gotta pull out all the stops!
We get it. But many don't, or won't, or can't. Even in our important 2020 election, 60 million - about one third - of U.S. voters didn't vote. Avoiding it is too easy and, in many states, voting is made too hard by electeds who don't want voters to vote. Perhaps someday we'll join advanced nations, that require their citizens to vote.
I AM NOT THROWING AWAY MY VOTE‼️
1:40 THIS SLAPS SO HARD WHATTTTTT

YES I REPLAYED THAT BIT TOO

@@galaxywas_takenLook around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive, right now.
oh dear
Well this is awkward
Still recovering from an accident, In 2016 I could barely walk, but I marched to my polling place listening to “ Hamilton.” It got me there and back.
Just as cringe as this song
@@MrSinister718 Omg can you grow up and leave if you're so triggered? This is a place for positivity and kindness, something you clearly don't value in this world.
@@arcticfox3878 Needing a safe space, and telling someone else to grow up. Oh sweet irony. Never reproduce or vote.
@@arcticfox3878 i bet they liked their own comment
@@arcticfox3878 bro it's a song reminding people to vote it really ain't that deep.
Love that the companies show up and out for these!
IMAGINE GETTING A HEART FROM HAMILTON
oh...im sure you do, precious!
I love you all! And YES I'm voting BLUE BLUE BLUE!
Someone said this is this years election:
"No one knows who you are or what you do"
"They don't need to know me, they don't like you"
Well, get to know everyone anyways. It's good to know who you're voting for, no matter what.
bruh im a minor but...
I AM NOT THROWIN AWAY MY VOTE 🔥🔥🔊🔊
Hopefully next election or after that!
@mischiefwithmillie YEAHH 🔥🔥🔥

this is the most partisan "non-partisan" voting song I've ever heard
FR
This is Hamilton. The play and its cast have never claimed to be neutral nonpartisan (…remember when Pence went to see the play?)
Besides, they are not discouraging anyone from going in and casting their ballot the other way, if anything the message I get is they’d rather you did vote differently from them than not vote at all.
This isn't even pretending to be non-partisan, wdym?
OMG NO WAY MOST OF THESE PEOPLE WERE MY CAST WHEN I WENT!! I MET MORGAN ANITA WOOD AND MARC DELACRUZ!!!
No wonder they're so good
Is…… Did we get a Hamildrop in this the year of our Lord 2024???? This is a great remix.
@ESPHMacD this isn't quite a Hamildrop. Pretty close though
rest in peace 2025
I was NOT expecting to see Hamilton make a song about this but It's a BANGER
As a civics teacher, I made sure my students understood that voting is the way they make their voice heard on local, state, and federal levels. That, regardless of whether they were Republican, Democrat, or anywhere in between (funny enough, most of them were) that choosing not to vote would remove their basis for complaining about results.
I was very proud of my students, conservative and liberal, who left more prepared to contribute to our great country.
Guys it's actually better to have an informed vote then just voting to vote.
And that's the point. Listen to words.
I mean, they should go hand in hand, everyone should be informed so everyone can vote. I know it might be easier said than done, but the information of the parties involved should be easily accessible, right? Especially in the era of the internet and news media?
2024, the year America got its sh*t back together!
Not yet it hasn't
Pray for it this election fixes stuff up 💙
I am so sorry
me, a minor: I am not throwing away my vote
As a minor you can develop your political views and as soon as you are eligible you can register to vote! Not having a vote yet is a great time to debate yourself and others and decide what you actually want to vote for. That way when the time comes, you won't be frozen in inaction or overwhelmed
@@angelexis2Yeah I already made my decision which is Kamala Harris. But I'm unfortunately powerless and have to rely on the adults of America to vote for the right person so people like me won't be affected by Project 2025. If people vote for Trump every minority might as well leave the country especially queer people. I doubt that enough people will vote for Harris because many people today are still dumb and conservative. So, if Project 2025 does happen (which wouldn't be surprising) then I can't wait for people to go "why are so many queer kids & adults committing s*icide out of nowhere?" Or "why are women dying from pregnancy complications?" And "why are so many people racist?" Like they didn't cause the problem of restricting talks of the LGBTQ, race theory, and wanting to ban abortion. Even after the debate with Harris and Trump, considering Donald Trump apparently has plot armor we're probably still screwed. I can ponder all day about who I want to vote for but it wouldn't make a difference. And this year matters a lot! But yeah I'm not getting my hopes up for our species.
@@angelexis2 especially if you want to develop a vendetta against half the people you will ever talk to
@____________________________a but a mindset like this is partly what contributes to political polarization. I think we should develop ideas views and values for ourselves, and as we do so, treat other people with respect and hear them out. We might find many people's actual views might not be strict red or blue but more complicated, moderate or something else entirely because humans and their experiences are unique and complex. And people with differing or even seemingly incompatible views can talk civil about it and might even learn from each other, or at least that gives this country a better shot at improving its issues. If more diverse minds come together.
@@angelexis2 i have anxiety my ass is NOT debating nobody 😭
When a political video has a 1:10 like to view ratio you know it’s good:D
This is a perfect explanation of why I support mandatory voting. Here in Australia, if you don't vote you get fined. This aims to make sure that everyone's voice is heard, and the elected representative represents the majority.
Yeah it's a totally different world out there. No democracy sausages. I like the mandatory voting but I think we are one of only 2 (?) countries in the world who do it. In theory, because it's mandatory, they have to make it as easy as possible for everyone to do ❤
G'day, fellow Aussie! Another thing I really appreciate about our system is that voting day is always on Saturday, which means that people can be in-person at the polling places without worrying about negotiating with their workplaces.
The Australian Electoral Commission also does amazing work.
That's the thing though...here in America, the greatest country on earth, it is our RIGHT to vote if we so choose. We aren't FORCED to like you are. It's a little something we call FREEDOM
@@KoreanKowboy93 I personally prefer to see it as an obligation to count everyone's vote (even if it's blank/informal) rather than the freedom from compulsion that the US has.
But I can understand why people don't like being forced to do something.
@@Rebecca.42 Brazil does it too!
I can’t explain my joy seeing Hamilton post, this was an amazing parody, send my respect to whoever wrote it!
I'm having an aneurysm
2:40 That transition was smooth
IM NOT THROWING AWAY MY VOTE 🗣️🗣️🗣️📣📣🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
It’s no joke that the whole world is watching this election and who’s gonna win
I can’t even vote and I’m still hyped 🤩
i really admire and appreciate that they didn’t talk anything about the actual people running, but just about the voting system
That’s a very smart way of doing a song like this, especially with how one sided so many people can be now a days
It was still very one sided if you listen closely to the lyrics.
@@hayleighelaine5671 Bias is always going to affect how you communicate, but at the end of the day this is still fairly open.
It's not like they're just saying "Everyone go vote democrat or you are evil" lol.
I agree but biased opinions can take form in any shape
Gonna vote (I'm underage and European)
I came as soon as I heard
all the way from London?

Yup, there goes my rights! 😄
I really hope this gets a bunch of theatre nerds to vote. We need them.
This wasn't on my bingo card but I'm glad its in my feed!
Just went to the polls yesterday, fam! I am NOT throwing away my VOTE! 💪🏽🗳️
3:19 why did this line go so hard? The mashup of the songs was a really nice addition.
Not all of us being subscribed to Hamilton and getting a notification to vote
Edit: I tried to click out but I couldn't-
i was already so ready to vote and now i have a hamilton song to listen to on the way to the polls??? we are making history folks! your vote MATTERS, please vote!!! 💙
This is a great example of using your platform for good!
I love this, especially since the message is to simply vote. They didn't push one side or the other, they didn't hate on either side, they just want people to get out and vote, and I love that!
If you didn’t think they were biased towards one side you didn’t pay attention to the lyrics 😂😂
@@kyledaines2428 Yeah... It was pretty obvious who they're leaning towards. A monkey could've told you that.
@@kyledaines2428 I thought I was the only one who noticed the shade
Definitely. The way they were positioning the last election as the best outcome by saying women vote again like you did last time 😂
Really? What song were you listening to? 2:10 Do you think “we’ve won each time our rights were gambled” means they are voting for protecting the lives of children who are threatened by abortion? I don’t think so. I think they want their special murder rights against their children protected instead.
I was so discouraged at the state of our country and honestly decided not to vote at all.
But after seeing this, I’m just so inspired to do so, thank you Hamilton cast for making this!
babe wake up new Hamilton song just dropped
This is incredible and a great message. I can't vote but I hope everyone who can does. History has its eyes on us to make the right decision.
It baffles me that people like this unironically and that it encourages anyone to vote
I mean if you like Hamilton, you’ll probably like this? But also I think the people motivated to vote by this are likely already motivated to vote
@@calvarydominique I don't like Hamilton
@@indigopandora1829 well then that makes sense why you find this cringe lol. Hamilton itself is equally as earnest and “unironic” in its approach
@@calvarydominique that's a lot of words I'm not reading
Agreed. The music is well-done, and they know how to sing, but the lyrics? Do they think we're that stupid? That we wouldn't vote in the first place? smh
Thank yah'll for doin' this! VOTE!
Smiling ear to ear. 😁 Definitely not throwing away my shot. I keep checking the rolls to make sure they haven't been purged. Counting down to October 9th for early voting.

So what did i miss?? (Yes this is a reference)
I haven’t even been once in America, but being honest, this slaps! Go vote folks, dear ham fans

Voting rates: 📈
Thank you for inspiring me to vote. Because of the unbelievable cringe, Trump gets my vote. Your inspiration was great!
