He's not yet old enough to cast a vote or drive a car, but 12-year-old Georgia native and middle school student CJ Pearson has become a conservative darling after passionately defending former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani's claim that he doesn't believe President Barack Obama loves America in a YouTube video that has amassed more than 1 million views since Saturday.

In fact, Pearson, who's worked on many conservative political campaigns in Georgia, according to his Facebook profile, went further to explain why he believes the president has "downright hatred" for the United States.

"I don't want to be politically correct. I don't care about being politically correct at this point," said young Pearson in the 3-minute video. "President Obama, you don't love America."

He then explains: "If you really did love America, you would call ISIS what it really is — an assault on Christianity, an assault on America, and a down-right hate for the American values our country holds — freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and every single thing our country stands for."

Those fiery comments have since catapulted Pearson into conservative stardom, earning him a scheduled appearance on Fox News' early-morning talk show "Fox & Friends" on Sunday.

"Quick update! Due to a scheduling conflict with the segment tomorrow, I will be on 'Fox and Friends' this Sunday! Be sure to tune in. I'll post the time as soon as I get it!" Pearson noted in a post on his Facebook page Tuesday.

In the viral video, Pearson also accused Obama of trying to take away "what hardworking Americans have worked for their entire lives." Pearson said Giuliani was right for calling out Obama for what he sees as his "downright hatred" for America.

"Here's what you need to realize, here in America … we don't back down to terrorists. … We fight them on their own battle ground and we annihilate them to the very end. Here in America, we don't allow the government to take away what we work for," he said.
