How This Works
For all donations, whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com will distribute approximately 90% of money donated to the selected charities. This is determined primarily by the amount of views per charity and available funds. The 10% expense includes Revver.com's .01/view webhosting cost, California Community Foundation's 1.25% administrative expense and site maintenance. Contributions to the California Community Foundation represent irrevocable gifts subject to the legal and fiduciary control of the foundation's Board of Directors.
For videos which have received 30,000 or more views, whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com may elect to add a click through advertisement at the end of such videos to defray web hosting expenses. As our objective is to donate the most funds possible to our charities, this will eliminate substantial expenses incurred by revver's .01 per view charge on videos with millions of views.
whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com is the property of John Ondrasik and is administrated by John and the Five For Fighting management team at Jim Grant Management.

WOW!! MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA AS WE SHOW LOVE FOR GOD, LOVE FOR COUNTRY AND LOVE FOR LIFE....
This was a truly impressive video that made me cry but I'm not ashamed to cry for an honorable cause and I have been taught to be a true patriot while serving in the US Navy for 20 years and by my parents and grandparents before me. It's time for America to take America back from all the people who would strive to undo her. She is our country, the Home of the Free and the Brave, With Liberty and Justice For All, In God We Trust. We are not a nation of the persecuted and the scared. Those who think we do not have the best country in the world are free to leave if they wish. For all that remain, serve God humbly, fly your flag proudly, serve your country well and respect the lives of the diverse masses of people who love it here because we are a free, God-fearing nation except a few percent who are not sure who they believe in except themselves. Thanks to all our miltary members who are serving overseas to defend our freedom's. And yes, there are those who would WMD's to destroy us and history has shown with many nations. GOD BLESS AMERICA AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

My son just returned from an 18 month tour in Afghanistan and he really doesn't undersatnd how proud I am of him. It is becuase of soldiers like him and the millions of others who have served this country that we are free. While we do have problems, the United States is by far the best country in the world. God Bless America and God Bless every soldier past, present, and future.

I'm so Thankful for my country.God has blessed us.We are the only counrty people run to cause they know they can.We take care of the other countries suppy food and all they need.But our Bleesed country is dieing.Because no one cares.God gave us a free country,but it is dlowly going to pot.We don't stand up for Our flag and what it stands for.Instead we grip about our soldiers being in war. Well my Dad served in World War 11 but he never gripped about it.We don't always like what we have to do,But I'm Thankful for our President.All he don't was try to get the ones that bomb the towers.American will not be free if we keep giving into the people who want to kill us off.I say God please b less America again.This is my country and if you don't want to protect it get out.Go back to where you came from.I love my country and our flag and I will continue to pledge the flag and say God bless American.It's my country.

I have just returned from Israel. Every soldier that I spoke to there was so amazed that my son is in the US Army.... by choice. They have no choice but to serve. Females 20 months and males for 3 years, but they are very proud to defend their country. I'm very proud to live in the USA. May God protect our soldiers as they defend our nation.

As a veteran, and as the spouse of a veteran, your video shows scenes that resonate why we fight. We set people free and establish Democracy in our world. Damn Wright, I love America!

GOD BLESS AMERICA , HER TROOPS AND HER CITIZENS. WE BECAME THIS GREAT NATION BACK IN 1775 BECAUSE OF BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN WILLING TO STAND UP AND POSSIBLY PAY THE ULTIMATE PRICE FOR AN IDEA OF FREEDOM. THE DIFFERENCE TODAY IS THAT WE ARE STANDING UP TO HELP OTHERS LIVE THEIR DREAM OF FREEDOM. THANK YOU JOHN ONDRASIK AND ALL ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SITE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. SEMPER FI

The quote below is a perfect example of why an individual should not be able to vote unless he has an IQ greater than 85: "To: KR Of course the news talks about Obama (and McCain)... he running for President! But clearly you have been ignoring what he says because EVERYTHING he is says is to benefit America. All the money he has it coming from small donations from people who can't afford much, so that is what money can buy. And he wants to do a TON for our military. Like providing them with adequate armor, and the new GI Bill. I am afraid he would do a lot more for our troops than any Republican has been doing in the last decade. I pray he becomes President for the sake of my brother in Iraq..."

From what you say about a persons IQ its clear you would never be able to vote, which in this case would be good.

America needs to wake up! What happened on 9/11/01 could happen all over again! WE MUST HAVE A STRONG DEFENSE AND A STRONG AND UNSTOPPABLE OFFENSE! Please vote McCain! I am DELIGHTED the Marines kicked out the dog killer and his friend. Weed out the trash that are giving us a bad name in the U.S. Military and go kill bin Laden and his ilk! God Bless America!
