I felt really cool that the president sent me a picture...all be it from an aid as I found out when I got older. But hey, when I was a kid it was darn cool. So, yes, Obama can broadcast himself to my kids. He is not indoctrinating anyone...he is asking them to do well in school. I do believe some of Obama's views are very radical and most have been through his life but I would say that education is education to Obama. That is all that matters at the moment in my kids classroom.

Good post!

I too have no problem with this, assuming the administration does it the right way. In other words, encouragethe kids but leave decisive politics out of it.
