NEWLY DISCOVERED: Third-Graders Pen & Perform ‘Proud American’ to Celebrate Obama Victory

"I'm going to study really hard just like Barack/
Learning never ever stops/
Gonna set my goals HIGH and graduate/
You might be looking at the President of 2048!/
We are a nation of a thousand colors, look at me/
Our strength is our diversity/
Walking hand in hand we sing/
Each a day a little closer to the dream of Dr. King"

Yeah, study real hard, and hopefully he’ll come to your school and personally show you how to lie and lie and lie and make up all kinds of stories! Now, won’t that be lots of fun kiddies???

Jeremy   September 25th, 2009 - 2:40 pm

What do Obama and King have in common?

Plagiarism.

Craig Allen   September 25th, 2009 - 2:43 pm

Yes kids, study real hard, perhaps you will learn to write a book, and not let someone else write it and then lie about writing it yourself!

Statist and pro-Obama propaganda being taught in the state-controlled schools?

Good god. what as happened to my country. Is it going to take riots to stop this thing in washington. I hope our military remembers their oath is the constitution and not the president.

We have been sold down the river. Saw this coming 3 years ago. would never have believed free people could allow this to happen. I was wrong i guess.

Democrat4EverAfterLife   September 25th, 2009 - 2:52 pm

This video is a wonderful reminder of where we are today, collectively, and of where we can all be one day in the near future! And these adorable children are literally showing us the way…they are showing us how to get there!

Speaking today at The United Nations, The Mr. President Obama told our global neighbors that we WILL have a nuclear weapons-free planet…and that world peace on Earth is not far behind! Hallelujah!!!

When I listen to these future global citizens singing their wee little hearts out, I catch my breath…and I feel Him tugging at my heart! It’s simply beautiful! We should thank God for the schools and teachers and parents that support activities like this! This is good for our world. And I’m sure ‘proper’ American citizens become misty-eyed when hearing this song sung by these children- because it’s THEIR song- it overflows with abundant LOVE and DEVOTION! It’s truly our lyrical legacy, if you will.

GOD BLESS THE LEADER OF OUR WORLD HERE ON EARTH AND OUR KINGDOM IN HEAVEN: BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA!

PS- IT’S QUITE THE CATCHY LITTLE TUNE, TOO:

♫ ♪ BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA ♪ ♫ ♪ MMM… MMM… GOOD! ♫ ♪

♫ ♪ BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA ♪ ♫ ♪ MMM… MMM… GOOD! ♫ ♪

♫ ♪ BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA ♪ ♫ ♪ MMM… MMM… GOOD! ♫ ♪

You Americans are so weird. At my school we’re allowed to show respect and admiration for our elected officials. People elected them, after all. What a crazy country.

Drano   September 25th, 2009 - 3:03 pm

Obama admin is racist to the core:

FCC diversity ‘czar’ Mark Lloyd

With former Obama green jobs czar [self described commie radical] Van Jones gone, along with his views about whites directing poisons to minorities, focus is now shifting to race-based views of “diversity czar” Mark Lloyd, who has suggested “white people” step down from positions of power to allow “more people of color, gays” and “other people” to take those positions.
He continued, “We’re in a position where you have to say who is going to step down so someone else can have power.”

Out of control. And, THEY wonder why thinking citizens didn’t want this fool Obama speaking to school children.

James   September 25th, 2009 - 3:24 pm

Never forget the basic premise…

blacks want reparations…. Obama is a black nationalist… so,re-distribute the wealth

every program and every group he has worked with over the last 20 years is dedicated
to black nationalism and providing for blacks…
ACORN and all the community organizing groups worked mainly for blacks…

the only way to get wealth to more blacks is to take it away from the wealthy i.e. the whites

he didn’t lie when he campaigned and gave all those speeches for years… (go to all the videos, we
have seen them) those were the truth… but we are so naively stupid that we thought he was just
pandering for the votes….. no, he wasn’t… this is the real Obama.

Its smash the system up and when the dust clears, we will all be part of the collective…
and the smiling kids will be marching with flags with Obama’s face on them and singing
praise to Obama on how he is healing the world…

the guy is an out and out black racist and wants you to feel uncomfortable if you think he is…

American Woman   September 25th, 2009 - 3:37 pm

peter c   September 25th, 2009 - 3:51 pm

As I said before…This indoctrination is going on all over the country and in every college.

And these kids are singing the praises of a man who voted four times to let ALL babies who survived induced abortions be left to die with NO medical treatment at all? A man who has a 100% favorite rating by Planned Parenthood and Naral? A man who said having a bay is “Punishment”? A man who’s wife has been a radical supporter of Parcial Birth abortions?

The Teacher’s Unions….The Media…Obama…the Whole Left are guilty of what Jesus warned us about what could happen to these Godless liars who indocrinate children with a false God(Obama)..when he warned.

“It is better for a man/woman to have a Millstone tied to his neck and be thrown in the Sea…then to lead a child astray”

How dare these Godless so-called teachers do thjis? they replace gthe name of Jesus with Obama but ban God completely from the lives of alll school kids? this would make Mao ,Stalin..Hitler and all the Godless dictators extremely happy to watch.

If this were about Bush the entire Left would be screaming to all hell.All the Liberal media would be playing it a thousand times and attacking all who made it..demanding they be fired..Like Imus was.

To all parents out there with school age kids..Please demand this NEVER happen to your children in school…They have killed God…and are now replacing Him with Obama….Is this okay with you?

Get involved…Demand you and your children’s Rights be up held…demand all teachers who do this evil indoctrination be fired! And all Princibles and school officials that condone this Evil be FIRED!

God help us.

Sandra, butt out, you don’t live in our country. I want children left alone. I don’t want our innocent children to become the new hitler youth.
Indocrination is wrong.

BRAIN WASHED KIDS & DUMBA$$ED ADULTS   September 25th, 2009 - 4:22 pm

It’s not really INDOCTRINATION. The true term is ‘BRAIN WASHING’ !

ER   September 25th, 2009 - 4:24 pm

Obama is on his way to dictatorship, he will flood America with non whites in order to destroy White America, he hates white people more than anything like most non whites.

White America you voted for your own destruction, like Obama said “You ain’t seen nothing yet”.

I will explain a bit, your property will be confiscated, you may even be sent to concentration camps if you refuse to comply, study what happen in Eastern Europe after WW2 and you will find out your future.

If you have a big house, you may be forced to accept one or two non white families to live with you in your house.

It is called socialism and you know nothing about it but you will find out soon.

Sandra   September 25th, 2009 - 4:27 pm

Come on guys. As soon as America butts out of the affairs of most other countries in the world we’ll lose interest in yours. Tell me when that happens.

ione   September 25th, 2009 - 4:31 pm

For all of you who don’t see a problem with this ask yourself if after 9-11 when George W. Bush’s approval was at 95% school children had been taught to sing praises to George Bush what would you have thought? I mean everyone was wearing red, white and blue ribbons and flying flags it would have been a perfect opportunity. It didn’t happen, because normal people don’t think like that. Normal people know the president is just a man and we are a nation of “law not men”. There is a big difference between respect and adulation. This film is like watching children in a cult. Like children in Cuba or China or in a Madrassa. Normal people don’t teach children to do these kind of things unless they want them to grow up to be little robots like little children in Cuba that “love” Fidel and line up in their little uniforms and hug him and bring him flowers. You should want children to grow up to think for themselves, to think logically not just follow some charismatic leader. Right wing of left wing does not matter, black or white, does not matter. No cult of personality is acceptable. And if you don’t get that then you better go get some help. And read a history book once in a while so you can find out why, this is dangerous.

Sandra: I am all for butting out of other countries. I am sick to death of running to everyone’s aid. The US is the first one coming to everyone’s aid. I agree… Lets stop now. We’ll save ourselves untold billions. By golly, we’ll fix our own budget woes… :)

Sandra   September 25th, 2009 - 4:40 pm

Ione, don’t you think this will pass though?

They’ll get past the fact that he’s not Bush(!), that he’s the first black president, that he’s an environmental president. It’s going to hit home that he’s just as in bed with Goldman Sachs and the other big banks as all presidents have been before him. He’s still a politician.

The shine will wear off then he’ll have to stand on his accomplishments, if he has any.

ER   September 25th, 2009 - 4:43 pm

What happened to Americans, have we lost our minds to elect the son of Gadafy as president?

Has America surrended to Islam?

middleclass   September 25th, 2009 - 4:43 pm

The problem is America is not about ONE person. America is about WE the people. The OFFICE of the president should be respected, but the president is a steward for a peroid of time, then the mantle moves to another, that’s why we don’t glorify a current president like dictators who plan to be in control until they are dead.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   September 25th, 2009 - 4:52 pm

America…pure and simple…this is indoctrination of our children for all things Obama and Islamic!

Louis Farrakhan proclaimed Bilderberg Bush-Obama the Nation of Islam’s Messiah.

You know why? He said…”because he had captured the minds of the young”!

Now this dictator wanna be just doesn’t want the Islamic youth…he wants the youth of the infidels to take over America.

If you indoctrinate them when they are young, you will have them for life!

America…wake up…get involved in your children’s schools and find out what they are doing there!

Keep up the fight…America!

One final thought…Bilderberg Bush-Obama loves this adoration…it would only take one word from his mouth to stop it…but he won’t…because he craves it to complete his takeover of America and it’s children for the future!

======================

THE REVOLUTION OF THE SILENT MAJORITY – SILENT NO MORE!

1. GETTING INFORMED
2. GETTING INVOLVED

DON’T TREAD ON US…WE PAY YOUR BILLS IN WASHINGTON AND IN YOUR HOMES WHERE YOU WILL ALL BE GOING STARTING IN 2010 AND BEYOND…GUARANTEED!

IMPEACHMENT OR THE ‘ORIGINAL’ KENYAN BIRTH CERTIFICATE…IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME!

ione   September 25th, 2009 - 4:56 pm

Sandra: in answer to your question. Yes, it will pass. Yes, the shine will rub off of Obama with these people that adore him. But, this kind of mind set that is being taught does not help the children learn how to think about their leaders. When Obama fades they will be looking for the next “god” to idolize. The next one could be, not a president, but some small time cult leader like Manson. It makes them susceptible to that way of thinking. Secondly, it is not good for the country to idolize a man, because a man as President can change a lot of laws with that kind of cover. Think “patriot act” or patriot act time ten. And by the time the shine is off and people realize he is just a man well….it may be too late. This applies to any country. Look how fast Chavez moved or frankly what is happening in any South American country right now. I, frankly, don’t want that in the USA.

I’m glad to see such beautiful and happy children in very nicely appointed classroom. The kids are healthy, clean and well-dressed. They must live in a really great country. I hope someone is teaching them that.

Sandra, Fake or Fool?   September 25th, 2009 - 5:12 pm

Sandra uses English that is too good to be anything else than British or a fake. If British, she knows the history of the Hitler Youth etc and the dangers of political indoctrination of children against the parents wishes. That means she is a Fool. If not British that leaves Fake.

Sandra   September 25th, 2009 - 5:17 pm

Um. Canadians (and the world at large) know international history as well as the British do. We also use very nice English up here. Thanks for respecting my language skills though. I guess my parents and teachers did a good job. For your enjoyment though, allow me to add: “aboot.”
Also, fake what? Fake person?

If Diversity is a strength then why does Israel refuse the Right of Return of the Palestinians?

FastFacts   September 25th, 2009 - 5:39 pm

Okay so this song doesn’t really disturb me, much. They aren’t praising him except saying he has gotten so far and so can I. This is fin but that other one really disturbs me, more than just the praising the president but what they are teaching the kids in the song, “equal pay, for equal work” that is just wrong, there are different education levels you may have reached, different skill levels, different jobs, and different stress levels. There is no such thing about equal pay for equal work unless you are talking about overcoming the problem of pay difference between gender and race, other than that it is just wrong. We aspire to succeed and that philosophy will take that away.

Every time I hear the other song though, I think about Obama’s Czars and some how the song turns into:

♫ ♪ Do Do Do ♪ ♫ ♪ Another one bites the dust ♫ ♪
♫ ♪ Do Do Do ♪ ♫ ♪ Another one bites the dust ♫ ♪

Let the brainwashing begin. This is how Marxist run their countries. Cuba, N. Korea, China, Venezuela, U.S.A. We’re all the same now no one is better than anyone else. We are one community of the word. The face of the Leftist Democrat party. MARXIST=DEOCRATS=TERRRORIST All the same ask the Brainwashed little kids.

Patrick   September 25th, 2009 - 6:08 pm

Outstanding. Go to school and learn to praise the Marxist leader, AND to put poor grammar to music.

Properly it would be, “Together we walk, you and I,” my precious boneheads — and I mean the so-called “teachers” who CERTAINLY should know better.

And speaking of boneheads, who’ll be the first vacant Liberal to hop onto his or her hind legs and yap about how trivial it is to expect proper English in school?

This isn’t new video – it’s been posted twice by the teacher of the class – he re-posted right before the Obama speech to school kids – this teacher wanted attention and exploited his kids to get it (my opinion) – I’m not sure he’s going to like the attention now that it’s hit ‘mainstream’…………

Carl   September 25th, 2009 - 6:25 pm

I sent my kids to school to learn how to read, write and add, etc.

If this is allowed in schools, who will be the objective arbiter of what is OK?

Schools should stick to reading, writing and arithmatic and leave the rest to the parents.

If we don’t we leave ourselves open to a lot of problems.

What will happen when all you who like this see something happen you don’t like?

Sandra SHUT UP DIMWIT   September 25th, 2009 - 6:26 pm

if you have no problem praising Obama in a public school then I guess you should not biitch,
when public school praises other men, such as Jesus.

Patrick   September 25th, 2009 - 6:36 pm

“If British, she knows the history of the Hitler Youth etc and the dangers of political indoctrination of children…”

Not necessarily, as she may have been preoccupied with learning snappy little songs about what a semi-deity Neville Chamberlain was.

IceCream Rover   September 25th, 2009 - 7:02 pm

I think it is great that childen in school write poems and cute little diddies about our county’s leaders. This
is how one learns and apreciates the hard work our leaders do so we can all have better lives. In my weekly
community social workshop we encourage childen to visit us and read there poems about Obama and other open
minded leaders in our govurment who work hard to help all of us. Children looking up to leaders has been going
on for hundred of years and the sky never fell on them. You haters need to put down your guns , take a deep
breath, and chill down with a good ice cream cone and may be you can see this is not a big deal.

This is not acceptable in the School System and any teacher ‘bowing’ to this behavior needs fired!
It is still about what is ‘right’ and what is ‘wrong’ in the American School System! If this were done about President Bush or others prior no one would have allowed it! Doing so now is not either. It is not about race people, it is about what is right and wrong. My children can not ‘pray in school’ so why shoud any child be doing this?

Ugly American   September 26th, 2009 - 12:57 am

Come on people! Give Sandy a break. First of all, she’s from Canada. That means her ancestors lacked the intestinal fortitude to throw off the chains of oppression that our ancestors did have. She’s from weak stock! And since the list of America’s accomplishments and contribution to the betterment of mankind are literally endless (for the life of me I cannot think of one great Canadian invention or one great Canadian for that matter-let’s see. The lightbulb? No, that was us. The motion picture? No, that was us. The airplane? No, that was us. The telephone, No that was us. The transistor? No, that was us. Landing on the moon? No, that was us. Wait, I’ve got one, no, two: Dudley Do-right and the space shuttle arm! Way to go Canada!)We’re going to give her a complex. Be nice.
Hey Sandy, sing us that one about Pierre Trudeu again!

bishopcruz   September 26th, 2009 - 2:49 am

Oh for crying out loud people!

Can’t we y’know argue constructively with people with different views?

The previous video was a travesty, and the principal of that school should be fired, especially considering all the ridiculous amount of sickening pro-Obama activities that by all appearances she was having the kids do.

This one bothers me, but it is nowhere near the level of the last, and I can more or less buy the kids actually writing this and doing it on their own, with a bit of help. I mean I loved Reagan back when I was a wee tyke, and I can see familial influence probably being a big factor in this one. Not to mention the main theme is essentially work hard and you might become president along with America Rocks! Not all that objectionable.

Still politics should not be in the classroom in general, so while I think this is a bit inappropriate, I think it was a well intentioned attempt to involve the class. A benefit of the doubt I do not accord the NJ video.

Back to the civility issue. I know that a lot of us are angry at what has been happening. That is good, Lord knows we have good reason to be. But the attacks on Sandra really do not speak well of us. We win these debates based upon the strength of our ideas, and sinking to the level of the average HuffPo poster is not going to convert anyone.

Completely ignoring them drives them nuts, you can witness this by the way each comment gets more frenzied and insane than the last. Eventually they wither away.

This footage alone would only slightly concern me. These kids are most liking celebrating black history month in class and I thought the ideas they were sharing were sweet and appropriate. They were learning about one of the most important parts of American history. What scares me is that I have already seen another, very alarming video that I cannot get out of my head…Mmm…Mmmm…Mmmm…Barrack Hussein Obama… Okay that was really…uhh…were those kids in North Korea or the USA? I wouldn’t be happy if my child was spending their time in school doing this. After that we even got a very well rehearsed militaristic like pledge to Obama. Crazy! Then you have that whole The Story of Stuff video http://www.storyofstuff.com/ I actually agree with this video in regard to chemical toxicity and I believe that we need to always preserve and protect our environment. This video is outrageous with regard to so many other things. We probably have logged 96% of our forest but we have replanted it – trees have given us so many life sustaining and enriching products – were we never meant to use them? We should have done better than 4% but I don’t trust this woman’s statistics. Government represented as a tank? The breast feeding thing – OMG If I had seen the Story of Stuff when I was a young girl I would have been terrified and I would have had such a sense of guilt. Kids should not be terrified and made to feel guilty at school. I don’t even have kids but I pay taxes for schools and I’m really outraged. Are we just grooming a bunch of ACORN employees here? Uh oh, should I expect a cry of racism from Carter now. Let’s stick to the 3 R’s sheeple – Have you noticed we’re not doing so hot in readin’ writin’ and rithimic?

Someone should be arrested for child abuse. Brainwashing children is disgusting!

Sandra, so you’re Canadian…ehh? Look, sometimes you have to tangle with a rougher crowd. You do quite a bit of provoking though, ehh?

rovers @2:47 pm….

Found this site on Wed., and am just starting to study it… “OathKeepers.org”

Found that off an article I was reading on WND about impending Martial Law in the US. (5-6 sections down under the Special Offers header)

Give “Camp FEMA” a search-up also.

For all of you decrying this teachers efforts as an attempt to brainwash the kids, you should kick yourself in the a^% for reciting the “Pledge of Allegiance”. If you were as smart as you want to appear, you would know that it was created for the sole purpose of Socialist indoctrination by two brothers that were kicked out of their Baptist denomination. They were self declared “Baptist Socialists”. Yet you say that America has never been this bad politically, I say that you are ignorant of the subject under discussion.
You mindnumbingly recite the POA and think that you have not by default devoted yourself to the god of Centralized Govt???? After all that was what the brothers intended:
History of the Pledge of Allegiance:
The Pledge was originally written in 1892-AUG by Francis Bellamy (1855 – 1931). He was an American, a Baptist minister, and an active Socialist. He included some of the concepts of his first cousin, Edward Bellamy, who wrote a number of socialist Utopian novels, such as Looking Backward (1888) and Equality (1897).
Have a nice day!

Obama is a younger Mugabe, he is too stupid to be a new Stalin or Hitler but the liberals will settle for Mugabe if they can not get a Stalin.

America will be ruled by black muslims, the liberals will be happy.

now ask these kids to add 2 + 2. Bet they get 5!!!!!!!!!

@ Jay   September 26th, 2009 - 11:02 am

I wanted to pledge myself to the Pet of The Month June 1983 but they didn’t let me…
there is a huge difference between swearing alegiance to your country and prostrating yourself to a person. Whereas I do agree that this video is not as offensive as the one from New Jersey, it is indicative of a dangerous trend. All of America’s darkest moments were a result of her leaders misuse of their authority and power and not the under-girding principles laid down in the constitution. Men are fallible. The founders knew it and put as many road blocks in our constitution to prevent what is happening now from happening. The problem is that people have been working on the destruction of the firewalls that would stop most of this since the constitution was ratified. As for the POA, that really sunk in didn’t it? I don’t think half of our country can sing the Star Spangled Banner anymore and fewer still could tell you what event inspired the song in the first place. As for Sandra, She inserted herself into an argument that, being a foreigner from a piss-ant country like Canada, was really none of her damn business. It’s like getting involved in an argument between two parents about how to raise the kids. If she doesn’t like the flames, then maybe she should go buy a sixpack of Mohlson and play six pack roulette with it and gtf off this thread.

Ice Cream Rover, take your ice cream and go get an ice cream enema? You need it, because you are so full of it!!!

Did they get permission from the Estate of Dr. King before they published excepts of his speech? I frankly don’t thinks so… the I have a dream speech is copyrighted work; I find the use of his speech as a STATIST PROPAGANDA tool is reprehensible and the teacher(s)should be fired immediately!!!

I wonder what would happen if BO went into a room with Washington?

Brad   September 26th, 2009 - 12:54 pm

PSST…..

Hey HYPOCRITES……. I did not see the Republicans all in uproar when children sang about Bush!!!!

http://thinkprogress.org/2006/04/17/katrina-song/

Today at the White House Easter Egg Roll, dozens of children “from the stricken Gulf Coast region serenaded First Lady Laura Bush with a song praising the beleaguered Federal Emergency Management Agency.” To the tune of “Hey Look Me Over,” the kids from Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama sang:

Our country’s stood beside us
People have sent us aid.
Katrina could not stop us, our hopes will never fade.
Congress, Bush and FEMA
People across our land
Together have come to rebuild us and we join them hand-in-hand!

So it’s OK when a Republican is being sung about, but not when a Democrat is???

Crawl back into your caves and come out when you have evolved into something other than what you currently are.

Me   September 26th, 2009 - 2:10 pm

Can’t worship God, can’t worship Jesus, can’t worship the Creator; but a to worship a man is perfectly acceptable. I wonder if any of the children in the video can even spell I-D-O-L-A-T-R-Y.

WTF??   September 26th, 2009 - 3:47 pm

Ha! I love it! More right wing hysteria designed to make the right wing nutbags on this site heads explode even more! A job well done!

djmelfi   September 27th, 2009 - 12:08 am

Hey guys, I thought the other video was a problem but at least they say American in this one and don’t do much more than mention who the president is. This one passes my smell test.
