The link you have given us in your comment #27 is really worth reading. Incredible! Obama’s campaign seems to be a copy/paste of Hitler’s campaign. The same tactics, the same words, the same hope of change, the same gesture… and the same financial situation in Germany than the one in the States now.
Obama’s campaign is so alike, that I wonder how come he wasn’t accused of plagia?

The Daily AntiKos

“What I found particularly nauseating, is liberal indoctrination in those videos. The idea that Barack will end war, famine, and dis-ease; that he will unite the country and the planet under a banner of peace and prosperity in our times, and we’ll be able to prance through gumdrop forests and giant daffodils; and dance with fuzzy bunnies and frolic through perpetual sunshine.”

The event and the promises in the song was over the top, the influence it obviously had on these children could be problematic come January 20. I hope these children will have a smooth adjustment.

Oh and for a humorous parody see this one:

I suggest everyone reads this article… it is so identical, it’s really scary. And then Obama knew his time had come…

I would quote it – but the sites terms of use do not allow it

I don’t “indoctrinate” my children – and I have been a father to seven. I have imparted ethics and moral principles on them, while giving them a freedom of choice. 2 of my children are independents, 3 democrats, and 2 are still under 18. I love them just the same. I am a “landmark” Baptist at heart – but my children have all found their own niches/beliefs as adults – and I still love them the same.

How many of us sometimes complain about how much we wish young people took a more active (not activist) role in being informed on American history, government, geography, and yes, politics?

Add world history, religion and change politics to political history/theory – that’s about where I am with my wishes. My BIG DEAL is teaching my children to THINK for themselves, be responsible, and be accountable for their actions. Other things as well – but those are the big ones.

In my book – it’s fair to expose children to politics only if you allow them to see all the sides in a fair manner and allow them to form their own opinions.

I think the photos Mike’s America posted are over the top. Certainly, I see some truth into the notions associating Obama with Marxism and socialism.

How would the Hitler/dictator comparisons be (mis?)construed coming from the left, photoshopping/linking Bush, Palin, or McCain?

We all “indoctrinate” our children with our values and beliefs. How many of us instill our brand of conservatism into our children?

At the age of 5-12, I agree that these kids really can’t possibly know much better, and are only parroting what they’ve been told and taught to believe about Obama.

That kind of naiveté will get us all killed. It’s grown ups instilling “books not bombs” and “peace is patriotic” bumpersticker, empty-headed nonsense.

I do agree that “brainwashing” children in general is a disservice, without getting children to actual apply critical thinking to the “why’s” of what they are being taught, and understanding the flip side to arguments.

In this case, I just really find it despicable to interject kids into politics. Don’t like it when I see them touted at rallies as “supporters” either… like they really know who’d theyd’ vote for.

You mean like this:

I think another apt comparison could be with Mao Zedong as well. Cults of personality, the lot of them.
