Lesson plans

I have been sick, so lots of good stuff passed me by. First, the president put out a guide to his speech to Americas's youth. Then the critics went crazy. They didn't want the President to talk to their children. They thought he was going to be political. Well, the speech came out and there was only positive statements. Did they apologize. No! The fact is that in this area of the country, students don't come back to school fully until Thursday. And when they come to school lockers are given out, books are given out, and the first assignments are given out. Students are worried about getting to class on time(especailly the Freshmen).
Imagine, if you can, my childhood with Ike as president. He was white and old. Then JFk brought youth into the White House, BUT, they killed him. Then I had old LBJ, Jimmy Carter, Nixon, and Reagan. They looked old and they did not look like me. Clinton brought a breath of youth and sunshine. And, he knew me as a race. Then look, Obama is me. Imagine young people looking at themselves. I can be president. I can be Secretary of State. I can be Attorney General. Yet, they don't want us to see what we can be.
