In a video aired during Sunday night's Grammy Awards, President Obama urged Americans to take responsibility for stopping sexual violence, saying, "Its not okay and it has to stop." On Sunday, he spoke about "It's On Us," a campaign to end sexual assault on college campuses. (The White House) The public service announcement represents the latest installment in the White House's ongoing "It's On Us," campaign, which aims to end sexual assaults on college campuses. The administration began the effort in September, with the support of major college sports leagues and prominent celebrities. Obama asked the artists featured at the Grammys to ask their fans to make the same pledge that these prominent figures have made, along with students from more than 200 colleges and universities, several collegiate sports organizations, and some private firms. He notes that nearly 1 in 5 women in the U.S. has experienced rape or attempted rape, and that more than 1 in 4 has suffered some form of domestic violence.

I’ll bet Obama will the inviting the big grammy winner, Sam Smith, to the White Hut for a little one-on-one session if you know what I mean.
Wow, I’m so glad we have the President to tell us these things!
He’s just trying to lead the sheep off in a different direction.
Does that include the rape of our once great nation?
>>Wow, Im so glad we have the President to tell us these things!<<
Yeah — until he said that, everyone thought it was OK!
Then tell Da Bruthas to stop singing about what to do with “biches n ho’s”...
North Korea has a leader who looks at things and we have a leader who tells us things.
My first thought also.
Sheesh. By the last year of his reign of terror, he’ll be interrupting kitty litter commercials with his pronouncements of the obvious.
“Its not okay and it has to stop.” On Sunday, he spoke about “It’s On Us,”
“It’s on us” I guess he is wearing the blue dress now?
Eeeewwwwww
THE REAL AGENDA - Most of you are already aware of the actual motive behind the Obama Grammy PSA and it has nothing to do with ending sexual violence against women . It has everything to do with creating another OFA type data-base of voter IDs for the 2016 election cycle and micro-targeting the audience of the Grammy Awards. The #ItsOnUs campaign is a sly, stealthy and legal way for Democrats to use the office of the President and assemble another, perhaps more up to date, list of people who they can target for next years Hillary Clinton run for the White House.

I think he’s trying to impress his entertainment pals, Jay-Z, Beyonce, all of them who go to his late night parties ...
He can just say the words, and he’s got a free slot in their big show.
What a putz!
yes- its on us...meanwhile two of the nominees for R&B song included Chris Brown (who constantly beat the sh!t out of his girlfriend Rihanna) and RJ Kelly (who was busted for pedophilia/child porn about 10 years ago)...
its on us- but not the grammy’s....
It is all about him.
He and the democrats do not see the irony in this message and backing islam and its treatment of women.
Well, being the “instead of”-Christ for a lot of people,
they DO look to him for moral pronunciations.
He sure was sweaty, I wonder if he was having a nicotine fit when they filmed that.
People at the gym I go to are furious about his remarks at the prayer breakfast.
Liberalism/leftism exposed is liberalism/leftism defeated.
They’re able to, generally, hide behind their (stated but not believed) good intentions.
But, sometimes they let the veil drop.
