So What?

So what if Obama gives an address directed at school kids? Some people are acting as if this is the first time any politician has spoken directly to children (with a political agenda in mind). It is impossible for a POLITICIAN to do anything but practice politics. That is his job. Speaking to children is great for publicity and might encourage a few of them to pay closer attention to American politics... who knows?

Besides, it will be another vague, cliché filled speech about staying in school, not doing drugs, breaking barriers, creating a better tomorrow, etc. Conservatives and moderates need not worry about Obama trying to brainwash kids with a message of Socialism. This is a stunt, like most Presidential appearances with or addresses to children or young people.

It won't be a useful speech, that is the worst it could possibly be.
