“At the end of the day, the circumstances of your life – what you look like, where you come from, how much money you have, what you’ve got going on at home – none of that is an excuse for neglecting your homework or having a bad attitude,’

Todays online news buzz is in regards to the Barack Obama’s Back To School speech at Wakefield High School in Arlington, VA. this morning.

Of course the backlash was from conservative groups who believe that Barack Obama and the White House Administration is seeking to indoctrinate the youth with their political agenda.

As usual, the only real cause of their alarm is that the move was something different and unorthodox which certain individuals innately fear.

I believe that without even listening to the speech, the act of giving a speech to students going back to school in the first place is simply a symbolic gesture that communicates an interest in the success and progress of minors.

How could an investment of time from the leader of a nation to the youth of a nation not be a wise move even if it is politically motivated? In 2012, quite a few of those children will be past the age of eighteen. Makes sense to me.
