The audacity of Obama knows no bounds. He has taken it upon himself to become the country’s “educator-in-chief” by having schools show a speech that is supposedly a simple “pep talk” about doing well in school but comes with “suggested” lesson plans. Where in the Constitution does it say that the president of the United States can set the curriculum for students. This is a dangerous and unconstitutional action by the executive branch and may be the first steps towards a full-fledged, government-sponsored cult of personality. The great dictators of our time have all reached out to students and indoctrinated them in order to carry out their grand social experiments. Worst of all was the Department of Education’s initial proposal to have students write letters about how they can “help” the president. Given that President Obama’s entire domestic policy is just one redistributionist program after the other, to invite students to engage in thought experiments about how best to implement such socialism is simply another attempt to brainwash Americans, starting from the earliest of ages.

Fortunately, the Department of Education has scrapped its plans to force public school students to write letters, but regardless of that, the president should not have the power to reach into the classrooms of young students and set their lesson plans. The teachers’ union, of course, is in the pocket of the Democratic party and would be more than delighted to show this video to their students… is this not an egregious conflict of interest? Imagine what would happen if there were not a large public outcry from concerned citizens around the country. The White House would have simply gone ahead with making students part of this socialist experiment and encouraging students to see themselves as part of the Democratic Party. It is, by its very nature, a political act, because to help a Democrat in the Oval Office is to believe in his political mission. We need to continue watching Obama’s actions very closely, otherwise we will end up subsidizing a cross-generational indoctrination by the far Left in America. Keep Obama out of the classroom!
