Obama to Speak to Nations Schoolchildren
darkjedi:
Lol, what else can you expect Obama to say? He'll just be making Bush's previous statements prettier using more flowery sentences.
Seriously, think about it; Obama talking to children about the Iranian/Korean nuclear issues when the average adult population thinks Iran/Korea is located in Australia...

I see where your coming from. I doubt school children have yet to learn about South America...
:P

Lol, but we don't need to, because South America often doesn't make the headline. They usually aren't part of important 'current events'. Except if you count that France-Brazil airliner accident a few months ago.
But I do know about Hillary Clinton's angry outburst when she addressed a student during a public conference in Congo... Did you?

^Text of speech
Nothin controversial, at all. Kind've depressing that the only thing anyone can say about it was the "God Bless You and God Bless America" at the end - but that's standard rhetoric for a Presidential Speech. That's kind've the normal ending for anything the President ever says so no controversy. Now, did it have to be on the first day of school? No, but it's the same song and dance that parents have been giving their kids from the get-go.

That's a lot longer than I expected. >_> He couldn't have memorized it, eh?
But as expected, it was typical.
