The President and school speeches…
So the President decided to talk to the students of America today… There was such an uproar about him doing so. Some said it would be political indoctrination. Some were just believing that the Whitehouse was overstepping their authority to want to do so. Subverting the parents and teacher authority. The president can call up the various media groups and get everything he wants to say on every form of media he wants to. With President Obama the media loves him and would consent to just about anything at times. It would not be a problem.
Looking at the past, the President has only talked to the students about self sufficiency and taking education seriously. Telling them to take charge of their own future. Nothing has he said to make me believe he would not say anything different this time.
The Whitehouse overstepping their authority? Hmm… How? The Whitehouse can only request that his speech be played. The school administration and teachers have the ability to broadcast the speech or not on their discretion. Parents authority? We send our children to school to be educated. We trust our educators to enrich and guide our children.
Whether you voted for the President or not, he is the President. I am not the biggest fan of the current administration. I cannot agree with much of his ideas in the direction of socialism or some of the personnel that he surrounds himself with. I do feel that he has the right to talk to the nation of his people. Our children should be able to listen to the president, I would say let the president speak his mind. As a parent you should listen to the speech yourself so that you can discuss what was said openly.
