I'm not at all sure why a speech urging students to Stay in school is controversial. I just don't understand what fears could possiably be found in this message.
Perhaps this fear is based on the thought that President Obama would use this moment addressing children to advance his political adjenda?
Are these same people afraid that the children would better understand this simple desire to take action to change the status quo? Perhaps even understanding his refusal to push our problems off to another generation, maybe even some those same children that he was addressing today? Our President releases his full speech before hand to counter all of these fears. Why is this even nessasary?
Why can't our nations leader address our children without his motives being questioned? Are we as a nation that jaded that bipartisanship cannot be found-- even in the nations schools?
Please tell me exactly just what has President Obama done to earn such distrust? After eight years if take it or leave it "Bush" politics, what is there to fear in a speech aimed toward children, attempts to motivate in our children to greater heights?
