EmailI don't want politics in my kids school either, so I understand why some parents were hot when they found out about kids chanting a nursery rhyme about Barack Obama during Black History Month last year. There's enough Obama Kool Aid floating around without folks trying to force it on the youngins.I want my kids to develop thier own delusions about our system of government and beyond teaching of the fundementals, don't push your smack on my seeds. I can't see any reason why there needs to be kind of political cheerleading in gradeschool. Civic lessons are one thing. Propaganda is another.
