#1 This song heaps praises on a man, not praise or respect for our country and it is frighteningly wrong whoever the man is. The parallels between this and songs and other gestures of adulation for despotic leaders like Mao are unavoidable.

#2 One song that the children were taught quotes directly from the spiritual "Jesus Loves the Little Children," though Jesus' name is replaced with Obama's
To me,this is worse than worshiping Mao. Obama is not the Messiah.

#4 Lefties always go for kids - it's only by indoctrinating the young and naive that they have a chance of any kind of parity of support. Those who are independent thinkers, if they are lucky, pass through the 'educators'' echo chamber unswerved, but most youths are susceptible to some degree, and its often not until into middle age and a life of observing the counter-factuality of Leftist dogma that they realise the sham that it is. Leftist ideology isn't something that many people evolve as a political creed for themselves, as it's simply too patently nonsensical and disadvantageous to decent people and most members of society - it's something which has to be taught.

#6 I admit my head assploded when I saw this video. Put up a link on my Facebook, but took it down a couple minutes later to seethe in quiet. It's creepy-scary.
I am a university educator, and one of the small percentage of them that votes center-right.
I live in Estonia (the former USSR), and I show videotapes in class from the Soviet period that look EXACTLY like that clip.
I hope people keep digging on it. I, for one, try to keep my political beliefs out of the classroom. I'm outraged by this.

#7 ...find the Enemy of the People who leaked the video and fire him/her!
