re: “through years of conditioning in public schools and corrupt politicians our people were and are made to believe they were on their own so they grasped at someone who spoke without regard to God and Law but to feelings and sentiment ...”

I agree that there have been years of indoctrination, but not so much in the public schools. Of course there are some nutjobs in public schools, but I rarely heard that stuff in public school, however I heard plenty of it in “higher education” i.e. college.

Professors were constantly mocking and attacking traditional Judeo-Christian values as well as expressing extreme cynisim toward American greatness and exceptionalism. It is in “academia”, higher education where the real marxists are.

The worst influences upon public schools have come since Jimmy Carter formed the Dept of Education back in the 1970’s. Once the states began accepting “educational” funds from the feds, they had to start dancing to whatever tune the federal government played. The Dept. of Education must be abolished. It is destroying the autonomy of the states to set their own public schools agenda. The people of each state should do that - not bureaucrats in Washington.

Oh especially in public schools not so much mocking but disinformation through silence and stifling slowly taking the Pledge of allegiance then systematically taking anything to do with a Christian nation from learning lessons bibles disappearing from classrooms children being chided by teachers for praying to themselves before meals but giving other religions special privileges to pray all in the guise of political correctness I'm sure you've read the so called isolated stories as most have but these things happen in public schools all the time and with the media and the public fear of "rocking the boat" they never see the light of day

This will never happen with the quality of educated parents and leaders we have today so many are to busy trying to make their own mark on the world that they have no time or proclivity to look far enough into the future to care some things that used to right themselves through lite policy are now to weighed down to one side or the other to stand corrected ! it's a shame really when parents a afraid of their children besting them in life and the fear is created by political correct bureaucrats and the 1001 stooges who follow waiting for crumbs
