By the mid-1960s, all hell had broken loose in the American education system, most obviously in the universities that were at the center of the Vietnam War protest movement, but more subtly in the public school system as well.
And since the universities that were exploding with radical ideologies in the 1960s were also the furnace in which future educators were forged there was an inevitable long-term effect on what teachers taught their students about American traditions, values and beliefs. The anti-American fervor on college campuses during the Vietnam era was the fuel that led teachers to give up their traditional role as the builders of culture and turned them instead into termites that ate away at the foundations of our society.
That disconnect between American idealism and American youth may ultimately be how progressive education was able to shift the paradigm in America, and no better poster boy exists for the transformation of American education from a cultivator of good citizens into an incubator of radicalism than Bill Ayers.
You may remember Ayers from his tangential role in the 2008 presidential election. It turns out that he was an early supporter of Barack Obama and had helped the future president get jobs on two boards that divvied up millions of dollars in education and anti-poverty grants.

Dr. Bill Ayers: Or how I learned to stop bombing and destroy the system from within ...
Just enhancing his resume' to achieve what he considered the pinnacle for himself....to be a college professor.
Oh the stories he can tell to a room full of student I bet.
Read the Port Huron Statement by Tom Hayden. It describes the plan to take over education and journalism. Fonda’s husband, for background.
There isn’t an ounce of difference between Ayres and
the Oslo bomber.
Bill Ayers: Communist mentor and pseudo godfather to Barky Obama.
Oh, also self proclaimed author of Barky’s “Dreams of My Father”, and probably the other book, too.
SOmeone tell that rotten spoiled piece of crap Ayers that he is destroying it from within by staying around like a rotten apple squatting in a nice Orange dish now getting sick.
The irony of the narcissist homosexuals who impose their warts on others and yet claim they don’t do harm by that.
To all:
Get your children out of the tax-funded, union-run, government school collectives now!
The very existence of compulsory government school collectives violates conservative principle.
Make the sacrifices necessary to educate your children at home, in church or synagogue schools, in the private school of your choice, or start your own school cooperative.
As an aside, a cooperative differs from a collective in that a cooperative is voluntary while the collective is compulsory.
Of our nine children still at home, eight are compulsory school-age children, and we educate them at home. We have made the necessary lifestyle modifications to survive on one income.
Get out of the government school collectives.
Starve the Beast.
So you see, we should really be making friends with Al Qaeda, since underneath a terrorist there's a college professor just itching to get out.
Don't you have the next Obama book to write, Bill?
In some respects it's too bad that the Chicago Outfit doesn't do 'Charity Work'.
Sounds like another ‘Jane Fonda’ moment...
This was the intent of Communists from the 1920's and 1930's. The also wanted to take control of the unions and infiltrate the US Government.
Well wrought.
