As one of the preparatory materials for teachers provided by the Department of Education, students had been asked to, "Write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president. “

Today, after Republicans accused the White House of trying to indoctrinate school children with liberal propaganda the White House and the Department of Education changed the section to now read, "Write letters to themselves about how they can achieve their short‐term and long‐term education goals.”
huh. seems that 'change!' is once again the word of the day..

Q: When was the last time school children were asked to pledge to a national leader?

A: Hint: It was in the first half of the 20th Century in Europe! Maybe around the Rhineland, Balvaria and Alsace & Lorraine?!? Answer: Hilter Youth Rally, Neuremburg 1935.

YouTube - Hitler Youth Rally - Neuremberg, 1935, Hitler Jugent Parade and Speech

Hitler Youth Pledge: “I promise to do my duty in love and loyalty to the Führer and our flag.”

It really boils down to people like me who don't like the man, his politics, his socialism and his ideas addressing my kids. He is not the type of person I respect or want my kids to emulate.

And race has nothing to do with it.

Umm, incorrect. Don't spread falsehoods. Neither Bush or Reagan held press conferences that directly targeted and addressed the nation's student population.

Bush read a bunch of elementary schoolers a book and had a photo-op on 9/11/2001. Reagan may have had photo-ops but never addressed all the students as a collective one. Neither asked students to pledge.

What do you mean, lie?. I stated fact. IT IS A FACT: The last person with a messiah complex who attempted and, who successfully I shoud add, indoctrinated its student population was the Furer, Hitler.

Hitler was the last Western leader to hold a press conference that was specifically designed to target the student population.

They didn't learn from history I guess. I've been saying these same things.
