What would of happened if George W. Bush did an address and SENT A MEMO TO SCHOOLS WITH A COURSE OUTLINE HAVING STUDENTS WRITE HOW THEY CAN HELP THE PRESIDENT. Imagine if students wrote they can help President George W. Bush by joining the military in such hypothetical letters. All hell would have broke loose before/after.
Originally the Department of Education wanted teachers to [Have students] write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president. The Department of Education has since apologized for that but no way in hell should children be subjected to writing letters on how they should help a President. Even the other questions lead to conclusions that are opposite to what conservatives want their children exposed to on the role of government. Political upbringing is the role of parents not schools.
It's pretty simple if you ask me; Presidents (Republican or Democrat) shouldn't be inside classrooms except high school government classes and then only on C-Span without the dumb shit commentary from the idiots on MSdnc, CNN, Fox.
