    How?

    By forcing Obama to change his curriculum and belatedly release the "revised" text of his message, I think those who objected have achieved their goal.
    That you still can't prove. So basically we can all agree your just making this up..par for the course

    The White House announced it would be removing the part of the curriculum that suggested students write letters to themselves asking what they could do to help President Obama.

    That's a change to the curriculum.

    The White House released the text of the talk along with the ostensible previous version (according to Peabody), today.

    That's a change to the text.

    Is that proof enough the objections caused Obama to change his speech and the curriculum? Isn't that what I claimed?

    I'm not sure about what any previous message that Obama might have been giving prior to all the nationalized attention that this has been receiving to this event since it's first public disclosure that it was going to take place.

    But it's encouraging to see that Obama is sticking to one promise...allowing transparency to the general public. At least in this event of addressing our children.

    And to those that think that those that opposed this were being unjustly paranoid...to many parents such as myself it was the simple fact of allowing me to know what that message were to entail prior to giving it.

    It's grade school. It's not like they will miss much from one day of absence.

    "Hey dad, remember when I cried about never seeing the President speak to my generation during school? How foolish I was to have gotten upset that I missed meaningless words from a politician."



    I would wager most people putting weight on Obama's impact among the yutes are the same ones who laugh off the D.A.R.E. program.

    The office can certainly be held by inconsequential people.

    His words mean nothing.

    Generic cliche stay in school slogans mean even less.

    Action on the other hand...Obama could release more than 10% of our stimulus money before 2010 to keep sonny's parents employed which in return could decrease the chances sonny drops out due to opportunity cost.

    Just curious- do they run by you in advance everything that every adult says to them every day? Do you get to preview every speaker or every assembly or every pep rally that they have for TAKS or Red Ribbon Week?
