People… the problem is not with Obama giving a speech to the kids. It’s the stupid lesson plan that Dept of Ed put together. A simple speech encouraging kids to stay in school and do well is all that is needed. A lesson plan put together by nanny state bureaucrats asking kids “how they can help the President” is what bothers me and many others.
I got no problem with the president getting involved with schools. Kids need something to get fired up about. Go for it. Give them Hope. Kids are smart. When I was younger I was way liberal. I got smarter.
