I recognize that it is a minority of people, but a minority that is getting very skilled at creating noise and attention to their extreme views. Get over it. Barack Obama was elected President. Of the United States. And by a sizable majority. That's how democracy works. So when the President of the United States wants to highlight the importance of education, hard work, and self-reliance to the nation, through a speech to the nation's school children, this is something that we should support. Whether that President is Ronald Reagan, George Bush, Bill Clinton, George W Bush, or Barack Obama. Are these extremists about limiting discussion and avoiding viewspoints different than theirs? Perhaps their bigger worry is that their children will actually like, or at least admire the current President of the United States? Barack Obama is the President of these extremists. He is the President of all citizens and residents of the United States. Support the Office of the President of the United States, whether you agree with him or not. It was hard for me to support George W. Bush, but I did, when he was in the role of the President of the United States. |
