I guess I'm not paranoid enough, I don't see a problem with this or any other POTUS addressing the kids at school. ANY school. The guidelines offered to the students seem quite reasonable from a learning stand point.
WHAT is the problem here?

I have no problem with anyone addressing kids to study and work hard and make something of themselves. However, The One is speaking to his agenda, teachers (mostly Liberal) will continue the 'education' of our youth.
To quote Henry Kissinger: "Even paranoid people have enemies."

My comment concerns the back/forth about historical leaders, and the accompanying barbs.
Cool it.

As to issue raised by Roscoe, I don't know...could be good or bad. I do recall Kennedy spending alot of time coming up with ways to make PE a PITA, and somebody kept telling me I'd live if I jumped under my little wooden desk if the bomb was dropped (kept me awake nights cuz there was no way in hell I could fit under my desk).
Obviously, it's going to depend on the content rather than the setting.

C'mon... Obama is the nicest guy you could ever play 3 card monte with.
And that last one there, the "Mean spirited opposition" one... that's contained in the mandated Republican reply, according to MY sources!

The only card game Obama knows is "F your buddy"
I read the speach, nothing in there that bothered me. No doubt, based on public reaction they modified it. It is true that past presidents have done the same. Reagan, elder Bush, not sure about W. Did anyone read that article about how the dems in '91 came after Bush (elder) for doing a talk with school kids? Had congressional hearings and all of that!!

Roscoe faces the fantail and salutes the colors, turns and salutes the Officer of the Deck and says "Request permission to go ashore Sir"
Later,
Roscoe

I saw that this is directed towards Kindergarden through 6th.
Hmmm,
I'll have to write out some answers for my kids, and let them take the answers to school to help educate the teachers

I actually think it's not a bad idea. Kids have a funny way sometimes of cutting through the BS, sometimes just by asking a simple question. And it might get parents thinking about things that really need to be examined.

I`ll reserve final comment until I hear what he actually says ... however , if he can reach a few of these kids , motivate them and get them to look at school in a positive light , good for us all . However , I`m not holding my breath .
