'him and me' vs 'he and I.'

All you have to do is listen to each of the pronouns separately...

Give it to him...
Give it to me...

THEREFORE: Give it to him and me.

He went to the park...
I went to the park...
THEREFORE: He and I went to the park.

(AGAIN, the rule is that "I" and "HE" are subjective pronouns (subjects in the sentence); and "me" and "him" are both objective pronouns (objects in the sentence).

You don't have to tell me. I know how it works. The shock is seeing all the college educated professionals and broadcast journalists screwing it up.
