Well what is the point. That they are reading a passage about the current president? Or it's some conspiracy to corrupt children's minds?

It's probably best to teach your kids to not get their political opinions from elementary school teachers.

Are you sure your Daughter didn't make a mistake? I bet the teacher told her he was the worst president to ever take office. I'm 100 percent sure he is worse than Carter.

No sense telling your kids that their teacher is wrong or stupid or anything negative really.


Why?

If teachers are wrong then there should be no issue with telling your kid they're wrong.

Likely a teacher's union shill.

Teachers should not be projecting their beliefs upon the students. I don't have an issue if she set this up as a class debate, and asked students to pick their favorite presidents and debate them. I also wouldn't have an issue if she asked the students if they thought Obama should be able to run again or not, but set it up as a debate.

Exactly. I was actually sent to the office multiple times for explaining to a teacher why they were wrong. Luckily, my mom backed me up every single time.

I absolutely do not believe that this happened.

None of that even seems likely.

My concern is with the statement "he should be allowed to run again."

Why? People said the same thing when Reagan was in his second term. I believe the running mantra was "four more years." Didn't make it any more right then. Use this as a way to teach the kid about facts vs. opinions and why presidents only get 2 terms.

If she's in first grade, pretty sure there will be at least one more "good" and one more "bad" president in her lifetime.

i'm leaning in this direction. Not possible in LP. Who runs the show down there, Wax, Pope? Seems like one family had a stranglehold on the system, when the Buffs used to head over there to kick that lily white azz.

My friend went and talked to the principal in person, apparently this was not the "primary teacher" for his daughters class and the principal had already gotten a complaint this morning. This was not the first time there has been a problem like this with the same teacher. The principal stated that will be some type of action towards the teacher.
I don't think anything more than a meeting will come out of his.
Firing? I doubt that.

"is in office"

Did she give his office address, was it Trump Tower?

Or is the graveyard where Regan is buried called "office"

I'm a dem who's on the far left of the spectrum, two things:

1) She shouldn't do this
2) Her opinion is stupid.

That tells me the teacher is an idiot regardless of her politics and doesn't understand the Constitution and shouldn't be teaching anyone anything about government.




You were allowed to be President as many times as you could be elected until a two term limit amendment was ratified in the early 50s.

Maybe the teacher disagrees with that amendment and maybe you should learn a bit more about the Constitution as well baw.

Reagan even flat out said he was going to fight to get that amendment repealed but later backed off when he was diagnosed w/Alzheimer's.
