Seriously. This is scary.
People are supposed to write things like this to their country (at most)--praise and loyalty and devotion (far below voting age) to a man they only know on TV as the great O-man who cometh to make new?
The Hymn to Obama (which is sung to the Battle Hymn of the Republic) is part of something larger that is happening quite insidiously. Check out who started the song.
"Red and yellow, black and white/All are equal in his sight"
--->Beyond plagiarism, isn't that GOD, or at least Mao?
You know, that psychopathic dictator of China who had lots of young girls singing paens to him about how he led their great nation so they wanted to sleep with him(and boy did he take them up on that).
All Hail Obama! *salutes by raising right arm*
(or Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot...whomever you prefer, the list goes on and on and on...are we treating our ELECTED official--political affiliation aside--like he's our new dictator who will make all the bad problems go away if we just close our eyes and let Daddy Obama take care of everything. This example just takes the cake.
Teaching them this song like this is beyond sick. It's downright scary.
And just on a lyrics note, there are two other glaring issues:
"All your great accomplishments":
ACORN? Increasing deficit?
700 billion "lost" somewhere in oversight for your stimulus? Uh, hello? I realize he has time left, but I ain't singing no songs yet. Specially ones that taste like indoctrination. It's the newest flavor in Party Coffee.
"I speak for all Americans (we're really proud of you)":
The day all Americans agree on everything(particularly presidential policy), let alone worship that president, is the day we'll wake up and realize it's been 1984 for the past 500 years.
That just shows what this song really is--propaganda. Scary propaganda, because this is the way children learn their abcs, to use their brains without thinking.
Going for a ride.

Very scary. A nationwide program? Did this come from some Obama person? Or is this some random kook like Jesus Camp?

Hey sockpuppet. First post, huh? Welcome to the verse, I'll expect to see your ident card soon. If the name's literal, I'm already laughing.
In case you're serious, this was started by Ms. Charisse Carney-Nunez. Also known as the "award-winning" author of children's book "I Am Barak Obama".
Going for a ride.

Meh, eff the Kool-aid, the waffles taste better.
Of course, his policies aren't quite as easy to choke down, alas.

There is NOTHING wrong with school kids singing a song of praise for their President or their country. A little "good citizenship" is an outstanding lesson for children.

Mao, Castro, and that pansy in North Korea agree completely.
Where are the kids singing songs praising their country but being critical of the President? Somehow I suspect they didn't make the Glee Club cut.

Oh fiddlestix. It's a healthy & normal expression of pride in your nation. You think these kids understand the political ramifications of the words? They're just having fun, which seems to me to be better than bashing each others' heads in with 2 by 4's. It doesn't matter what they sing, the good news is that they're singing.
Even back in the Stone Age days of my yoot, we sang songs of praise & hope for our new President. If memory serves, it went something like this:
"JFK is our President, hooray hooray!
He is making our country stronger each and every day.
We study hard in school and we know,
that if we become President we can bang Marilyn Monroe."
See...no harm done.

Flashback: Schoolchildren also sang songs honoring President Bush
Huffington Post: Kids sang songs praising Bush after Hurricane Katrina. According to a September 25 Huffington Post article -- despite the Republican National Committee's accusations that the kids singing about Obama at the elementary school in New Jersey amounted to "indoctrination of our nations [sic] ... children," "fanaticism," and "propaganda" -- schoolchildren also sang about President Bush. From the article:
Alas, such "propaganda" has not been limited to despots, dictators and the Obama White House. As a savvy source points out, back in 2006 children from Gulf Coast states serenaded First Lady Laura Bush with a song praising the President, Congress, and Federal Emergency Management Agency for their response to -- of all things -- Hurricane Katrina. The lyrics were as follow:
Our country's stood beside us People have sent us aid. Katrina could not stop us, our hopes will never fade. Congress, Bush and FEMA People across our land Together have come to rebuild us and we join them hand-in-hand!
The event took place at that year's White House Easter Egg Roll and included roughly 100 children from Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. President Bush, it seems, wasn't in attendance during the song itself. But he was there earlier, when the First Lady read the book, Will You Be My Friend: A Bunny and Bird Story by Nancy Tafuri, to the children.
"After the reading," the Wall Street Journal reported at the time, "Mr. Bush asked, 'Did you like this book? Does it tell you about what people can do to help other people, what bird did to help bunny? Be kind to him and give him shelter.'"
The weather that day was described as a "chilly rain" which must have seemed appropriate given the fact that the Gulf Coast children were actually thanking the administration for its feeble response to the hurricane.
