After all the Obama brainwashing, kids should be receptive to voting
Maybe this would be true even if Barack Obama hadn't won the presidency, but I've been really surprised how much my daughter knows about him, and about Michelle Obama and the girls. And this is my first grader we're talking about.
She picked this stuff up at school. She comes home with pictures of President Obama to color.
Well, today is election day again. This time, the elections are small, in various cities in Broward County. My city, Plantation, has an election. But I want to raise a voter. So I'm talking to the kids about the races.
If you want ideas on teaching your kids the A, B, Cs of good citizenship, check out Kids Voting USA.
And by the way, the Kids Voting election results also went Obama's way. But I found it interesting that 494 kids voted Socialist.

Just curious as to why you called it brainwashing but never really explained that part of it in your blog.

I am disgusted that our social studies teachers are encourageing our kids to idealize socialism. And what appalze me the most is that he was a military veteran. I am disgusted. Where are our American morals in school. Chokio-Alberta school district in Minnesota sucks for down grading democracy, and encouraging socialism. Jim D.
