What are your kids learning in school? Schoolchildren sing praises to Pres Obama! (lyrics)

What are your kids learning in school?  Some kids learn math, science and English in school.  Others study foreign languages, art and participate in physical education classes.  Some kids participate in community activities social studies.  Still others spend their school days preparing for their future and their continuing education.


There is one growing area of studies that if your child is not currently participating in they will be soon.  One vital area of curriculum that we all will soon all be participating in.  COMMON CENTS is proud to bring you several real world examples of children singing songs praising President Obama.  Get busy practicing!

Barack Obama – Recorded:
“I am the son of a black man from Kenya and a white woman from Kansas. I was raised with the help of a white grandfather who survived a Depression to serve in Patton’s Army during World War II and a white grandmother who worked on a bomber assembly line at Fort Leavenworth while he was overseas. I’ve gone to some of the best schools in America and lived in one of the world’s poorest nations. I am married to a black American who carries within her the blood of slaves and slave-owners – an inheritance we pass on to our two precious daughters. I have brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, uncles and cousins, of every race and every hue, scattered across three continents, and for as long as I live, I will never forget that in no other country on Earth is my story even possible.” — Barack Obama, “A More Perfect Union,” March 18, 2008.
