Later someone else, obviously someone he knows, comes over talking about how important this creepy guy is, how there is books about him, trying to motivate the kindergartner or seventeen year old to be interested in this conversation. He wants your child to consider what it took to be in such an important job as his and why it is important to listen to such important people as him. These other people want your child to draw a picture or write down what such important comments are coming from such an important man. The creep wants your kid to think about if he can do the things the creep is asking him to do. Now this same guy, who is not even a teacher much less your child’s teacher, wants them to do all sorts of academic things associated with all the important ideas shared by the oh so important man. Finally the weirdo says “Why don’t you write letters to yourself about what you can do to help me.“ If you distance yourself, just a slight bit, from the context of this whole incident you see how purposeful and subtle is this leftist attempt at propaganda.
In an exercise of not subtle intimidation, public and private school teachers during the fall 2008 campaign were asking little kids across America how their parents were going to vote and then holding mock elections in classroom asking how the kids would vote if they could. Wonder of wonders, who do you think won the classroom elections?
Fireside chats directly to the kiddies are among other things advance campaiging for next time. This is a far cry from passing through town in a motorcade. Instant telecommunications is a double edged sword. Good God! Who would want this Marxist stranger’s messages imprinted on their child’s brain.
