All I'm saying boys is that heavy handed propaganda from the state will either cause you to win big or lose big. When you play this game you don't play small. Either it works or it bites you in the ass in a serious way. Remember Ababedinjad's (sic and I don't care, screw him) comment that "there are no homosexuals in Iran" comment? He was addressing a mostly respectful audience at NYU and they all broke out in belly laughs. Far more effective than any heckler could ever be. Same with BO or any President, We don't do cults of personality here very well. We tend to tear down and ridicule our leaders. This both a good thing and a bad thing for reasons I don't need to explain, but it has been an American thing since the days of the Revolution. Just watch late night TV if you doubt me. I think that teacher took a class of 8 year olds who will look at that video their moms recorded ten years from now and be both embarrassed and pissed. I doubt any of them will feel less than used when they hit voting age even if they agree with the Dems, they may vte the party, but they will be cured of any personality cult. The ridicule of their peers and the teenage need to rebel against authority will cure them of that. The American culture will reinforce it. We love our heroes, but we love to see them fail even more. That's just part of the American culture. I ain't worried (nauseated, but not worried). So Eric, consider this source and tell me where I'm wrong.

Pa-Leese! The country can't wait 10-years to see if these kids become self-aware and reject this crap!
* There is a willing press that has willing rejected their once cherished function to keep the government honest.
