That sounds like something right out of Axelrove’s dark matter. I’ll bet it’s tangled, too.

Yet IMO, even this is application of community Organization techniques on a large scale. It is pushing a group think mentality that forces the concept that Obama "inspires us all". For example: "• Create a “concept web.” Teachers may ask students to think of the following: Why does President Obama want to speak with us today? How will he inspire us? How will he challenge us? What might he say? Do you remember any other historic moments when the president spoke to the nation? What was the impact? After brainstorming answers to these questions, students could create a “cause‐and‐effect” graphic organizer." Here is a link to the grade 7-12 after speech lesson plan:

As usual he contradicts himself within the same speech. I have only read parts of the speech but what a waste of time. Me...me...me....now what do you think about me? And how will you support me? Geez....the left would have gone ballistic if Bush 43 said, 'How will you support me', to the kids. When all Bush wanted support for was his war of convenience and complained that those who didn't support him were unpatriotic. Thanks for the link.

Especially this one. My problem comes from the likely fact that most little kids don't give two hoots in hell what the president says. Why should they bother? They have their parents and their teacher for all that preaching and telling-what-to-do. In any case, if anyone wants to reach the kids with a message of any kind, you would be better off using Ronald McDonald.

That video is scary but not far from Obama's study guide to the teachers on his speech (which they scrapped after the outcry) and the involuntary participation required of some parents and kids .
