YouTube -- School kids taught to praise Obama

And so it continues...





In the past, I blogged about another video, and another group of children singing praises to Obama, along with a letter that was written by Lori Kalner, released with the help of Bodie Thoene after I had asked Bodie if she'd seen the video. I also posted a series of Bodie's blog entries about the same time.

I have not yet read all of the comments for this video, and won't, as there are too many of them to spend the time. However, there is one that is interesting, and may be true, to a certain extent. The point is, many times, children are used as a means of indoctrination/propaganda, because of several factors--they are 'cute', they are vulnerable, and they trust their teachers implicitly.

Whether the Hitler Youth, or another... the result is that a generation of children are indoctrinated for the 'regime' in power.... I can honestly say that I have no memory of any 'love songs' or other being taught for any of our previous Presidents of this USA in the past. I also do not recall any videos of this sort for either President Bush, President Clinton, or President Reagan.

This is not cute, IMHO.

Lord, have Mercy!

Comments from the video, not in any particular order:

hydeandgojonathan -- you're right, comparing this to something from Czarist Russia or Hitler's Germany is wrong. The better comparison is to Kim Jong-Il's North Korea. What's scary is that if this were a North Korean teacher, you'd know they were coerced. This teacher has no such excuse.

The (Hitler Youth), the NAZI party's youth movement, indoctrinated German youth to perpetuate the "1,000 year Reich." The Hitler Youth movement emphasized activism, physical training, NAZI ideology, especially nationalism and racial concepts, and absolute obedience to Hitler and the NAZI Party. Indoctrinating children in National Socialist idelogy was a key goal of the NAZI Party. Once Hitler assumed control, he used the Gov't to make the Hitler Youth the country's all encompasing youth movement

The children used to be told to sing to Hitler too, this is scary.

Does anyone know who the head of the teachers union is? His name is Wade Rathke, he the cofounder of the SEIU. He was also co-founder of ACORN. Wade Rathke visits obama at the white house once a week. My point is, your children and getting indoctrinatated by some bad @ss nuts. Think about it, these kids are routinely discouraged from praising God in school, but they are encouraged to praise obama.

Relax, people! There' s nothing wrong! It's not what you think. Please, keep moving to the left now. There, isn't that better? The lobotomist w/b w/u soon. Put your guns in that pile over there, yes, just like that. The ACO-- the nice lady will show you the way down the hall when your number is called. Here's the words to our new pledge of allegiance to Obama. Here's some free money & an armband. Do you have kids? That's nice. They can go play in Obamaland. Okay, prep time. Scalpel! Drill here!

On the one hand, the biggest difference between this kind of indoctrination and the Nazi/North Korean type (example: see yyDso7WOOj0) is that the federal government isn't directly "behind" this teacher's behavior. On the other hand, this American-style indoctrination is arguably even more dangerous, insofar as the Democratic Party has for decades guided the educational curricula in this country through groups such as the NEA. I assume that you all have seen the reports about their behavior.

Notice at one minute into the video, there is a poster on the floor on the left that has a picture of Obama and that says "I am Barack Obama" Why did they choose "I am Barack Obama"? They could have just as easily chosen "I am the Messiah!" Shame on these teachers and this school.

This was not a music teacher, this was a friend of Obama who wrote the book you see to the left "I Am Barak Obama" she was a guest at the school and took the liberty to teach them this song. And my guess is the parents had no clue.

Ok, so I did a little more looking, and found the website for this book that wowoak mentions. The youtube video linked to this website -- "This video has been removed by the user". The Amazon link works. The description of this book by
Charisse Carney-Nunes reads as follows:

Product Description
I Am Barack Obama is not a book about Barack Obama.
Rather, it allows children to see themselves through the inspirational story
of President Obama growing up as an ordinary child asking,
Who will change the world?
Ultimately, he realizes that he will.
I Am Barack Obama is also the
first children's digibook available
interactively along with its companion print edition.

This book apparently uses interaction with the written word of the print edition... sounds like it will effectively 'teach' children via all known teaching skills that will enable each child to 'learn' the lessons regardless of the best way that each can learn, and now, including by song....

We all need to call these phone numbers and raise some hell.. This is bull.... People who want communism seem to forget that capitalism is what made America strong and that communism has always failed (see USSR)... Obama is a man not a God...
