   These are some of the people who have TAUGHT THE TEACHERS ,  these are just a couple of the people responsible for the  socialist indoctrination  of your children  and grandchildren today .   Why ?, because these are the kinds of teachers , and professors , who teach  and taught the teachers of the eighties , nineties ,  and two thousands right up to and including now ,  how to be little jack booted  socialist  followers  .  These are the kinds of people who are responsible , not only for the rise of Obama , but the continuing  rise in popularity of the socialist agenda pushed by Sen. Sanders , running for president today . Have you been wondering where the utopian fascination and  the liberal revolutionary  romance from the " sixties "anti- rebellions came from ?    Where all of the anti-establishment culture of youth today have gained the idea that repeating the sixties is the way to bring about "change " today ?
   
   I do not  dislike these people  specifically .   Only that the indoctrination  of unformed minds of our young and youth continues  today and  only that our young have locked into socialist ideologies of these teachings , and believe  people like Sanders to be the saviors of  America and it's future  .
   
   What say you ?

      I must say, you have a vivid imagination.  I received my college degree in the 80s at what is considered to be a "liberal" university and did not know a single jackbooted socialist.  Not one.  I have a wide group of friends and acquaintances with graduate degrees, not one of which is a jackbooted socialist.  Now, of course, this is merely anecdotal evidence.  I'm sure you have some data to support your belief that this widespread indoctrination has occurred or is occurring?  I would love to see it.  You know, something that shows that students enter college as capitalists and leave as socialists.  Would love to see that supporting evidence.  Until then, I cannot embrace your sweeping assertions as fact.  Oh, wait, I think I learned that in college.

         Like the Emperors New Clothes, socialist jackboots are invisible.  Only by the results of those boots, notably the Robin Hood Syndrome, can we recognize that they are there.
         
         Occasionally the witchery is canceled out, such as when the "1%" is mentioned, but for the most part it is hidden behind "THE CHILDREN WILL DIE" laments.

      With such a narrow-minded view on social issues, and perhaps also a narrow-minded bias towards right-wing politics, is it not surprising that one would conjure up such a crowd of followers?
      
      The old "Red Under The Bed" syndrome of the McCarthy era should be long dead - IF some good old-fashioned common sense was applied.   The conservative, right-wing, pseudo-christian selfishness and greed is trying to gain prominence across the world right now, not just in the United States.  Maybe it has its roots in our animal prehistory, bringing instinctive behaviour into play - irrational fears, striking out against the unknown, the unusual, the different... I don't know.  Strange times, strange happenings.

         You like to bring up Texas so I found the controversy.
         
         On November 7, 2007, Christine Comer resigned as the director of the science curriculum after more than nine years. Comer said that her resignation was a result of pressure from officials who claimed that she had given the appearance of criticizing the teaching of intelligent design.
         In 2009, the Board received criticism from more than fifty scientific organizations over an attempt to weaken science standards on evolution.
         
         In 2010, a group of historians, including Jean A. Stuntz of West Texas A&M University in Canyon, Texas, signed a petition to oppose the revisions in the social studies curricula approved by the state Board, changes which require the inclusion of conservative topics in public school instruction. For instance, Jefferson's name must be restored to a list of Enlightenment thinkers. There must be emphasis on the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States in regard to property rights. Students must be taught that new documents, the Venona project, verify U.S. Senator Joseph R. McCarthy's suspicions of communist infiltration of the U.S. government during the post-World War II era. Stuntz told the Amarillo Globe-News that the SBOE is "micromanaging. They don't know what they're doing."
         
         In October 2012, The Revisionaries, a documentary film about the re-election of the chairman of the Texas Board of Education Don McLeroy and the curriculum controversy was released. In late January 2013, PBS's Independent Lens aired an abridged version the film.
         
         Texas House Speaker Joe Straus of San Antonio said that the government should "take a look" at the structure of the Board and consider a nonpartisan or appointed board if the elected members are "not getting their job done and they're not pleasing the Legislature or the citizens, then we ought to take a thorough look at what they are doing." In 2010, it was said to be "drafting its own version of American history", including altering school textbooks to remove what it said was a "left leaning bias" and making changes that are said to have "religious and racial overtones".
         
         For example, the proposed curriculum would downplay Thomas Jefferson's emphasis on the separation of church and state (outlined in his Letter to Danbury Baptists), and would include a greater emphasis on the importance of religion to the founding fathers. Other changes include downplaying Abraham Lincoln's role in the civil war and putting more emphasis on the Confederate leader Jefferson Davis, questioning the Civil Rights Movement in addition to downplaying Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy, removing such instances and points of history such as downplaying slavery, putting more emphasis on the states rights cause during the Civil War. Critics of the proposed changes believe that such a focus on the religious elements of the founding period could cause teachers to omit lessons on history more pertinent to national standards. Proponents of the new changes argue that the religious elements are often downplayed to the point of obscurity due to the left-leaning nature of public education.[citation needed]
         *  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Education_Agency
         
         Personally, I don't see anything wrong with that because it would be more inline with what I learned in my school years.  It was a mistake to allow the government to take over public schools and college curriculum in my honest opinion.  That is when I decided it was best to homeschool my kids. A lot has been changed since then and kids are being dumbed-down. Common core has to go!

            A most thoughtful reply,
            
            I don't want the government to take over public schools, but municipal governments, ie, 'Denver Public Schools' have something to do with the operations of the schools. I certainly want professionals with credentials in the reference field of study involved. You can home school your kids and inculcate them with your values that might not be appropriate for a general public school audience. America is not a theocracy, that was the intent of the founding fathers and the intepretation of historians. While states rights played a role, the Civil War might have never started were it not for the issue of slavery. Every high school history student knows that.
            
            There always need to be balance, because social science is not a hard science, but the complaints from the Right takes it to unacceptable extremes, but do they not always?

               It depends on if a person allows Christ in their heart, or not.  There are Christ centered churches, then they are religious churches.

                  Yet, when you want to push a politically  biased point of view you will happily side with right-wing propaganda.
                  You are free to follow your personal beliefs but to use them in such a controlling manner negates their authenticity in my opinion.

                  Will all of your constant Bible quotes and comments about religion it appears to me that you are attempting to use religion as a tool. Claiming to have 'allowed Christ in one's heart' is basically a way of claiming that one person's Bible quotes supercede another's understanding of the same book. It is a claim which cannot be proven and is simply a tool used to attempt to gain control. It is exactly what Johnny was commenting on.

   It is difficult to indoctrinate a child if parents relinquish their rights as the primary people who interact with their children. If they do not teach their children to think for themselves others will be more than willing to step in and think for them.

You could do some research before you reply to my posts so it looks like you have knowledge of a topic, (instead of snark and knee-jerk reactions), or not.  I actually think you are a smart person, but my oh my...and the beat goes on.   You just might like the UN's sustainability living agenda instead of the American Dream!  I do not believe it is a smart choice, hardly the best choice.
         
         Mind you I can live off the grid and grow my own food which is 'sustainability living', but that is NOT the UN's agenda for control. Oh yeah, they package it up with nice sounding words, but they mean something other than what we know it to mean.  Hint: its not in our best interest.

                  For once I can agree with you, Susie, concerning the "ring" of corruption.  But I can't prove it, nor can most people prove it. 
                  
                  The sad thing is we all suspect corruption, and make the assumption that we can't believe them.  We have stopped trusting people, even ourselves.  There is a general distrust of men:  they are all monsters, after our children!  Ministers of religion, especially of the Roman church, are sexual deviates: all of 'em, so don't trust 'em.   Big business is all corrupt, so avoid all products from big companies.   And so it goes on.  We don't seem able to sift out the "chiff from the chaff" these days.
                  
                  As a result, our entire population, world-wide, is feeling that deep sense of insecurity and we feel so helpless.  We poison the atmosphere with distrust.  We fight against and amongst ourselves.
                  
                  Yet funnily enough, 24 hours of power outage, with very heavy rain and wind, has made us gather together and start thinking as a community.   I hope this continues beyond abatement of the storm.  It can do us good and help to build resilience and strength through common threat and need.
