I wouldn't mind my daughter watching the speech, although I think Obama is doing a terrible job at being president.....[He has the highest disapproval rate there has ever been and he accumulated that title in the shortest amount of time] but I do not want her to write a paper on how she can help him....isn't it his job to help us?? What kind of president would need a childs input to help him do his job?  ??

I DONT THINK THAT THE YOUNGER CHILDREN WOULDNT UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE SPEECH, BUT GRADES 4-6, I DONT SEE A PROBLEM. REALLY I DONT SEE A PROBLEM AT ALL. YOU EXPECT PRESIDENT OBAMA TO WORK MIRACLES IN HIS FIRST MONTHS? HE HAS SO MUCH OPPOSITION. PEOPLE HATE THE FACT THAT A BLACK PRESIDENT IS IN THE "WHITE" HOUSE. I JUST CALL IT AS I SEE IT. HE IS DOING A GREAT JOB WITH WHAT HE HAS TO DEAL WITH AND ALL THE OPPOSITION. UNITED STATES NEED TO ACCEPT THE FACT THAT HE IS THERE FOR 4 YEARS, AND TRY TO WORK TOGETHER IN HARMONY. IT WOULD BE NICE IF PEOPLE WERE COLOR BLIND BUT THEY ARENT. THE FACT IS, THE CHICKENS HAVE COME HOME TOO ROOST! THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA FOR STAYING STRONG IN THE "WHITE HOUSE" WITH ALL THE RACISM THAT IS SO OBVIOUS. LETS WORK TOGETHER IN HARMONY!

Funny isn't it? Some one says "I don't think "President Obama is doing a good job" and someone screams RACISM!!! What ever happened to free speech? In regards to the speech. I think if he kept it to "Stay in school, get an education and live better" it could be inspirational. I have heard though, leaks of the "Speech" is he wants the kids to come home and pester the parents to support the health care or flu shots or whatever some "Fringe" people are claiming. I might be curious in regards to the speech myself. Not that I support "Mr. Obama" (If he'd show the long form, this would change my reference to him) but I'm not about to start calling him a failure just yet. I'll give it four years

YES FREE SPEECH, THAT IS WHAT I SPOKE, MY RIGHT TO SAY WHAT I WANT AND ISNT FUNNY WHEN YOU BRING UP RACISM PEOPLE ALWAYS THINK THAT IS A COP OUT, IT IS WHAT IT IS, THIS MAN IS HATED MORE ANY PRESIDENT AND RECEIVES MORE THREATS. HE IS ADDRESSED SO MUCH AS MR OBAMA WHEN HE IS THE PRESIDENT. RACISM IS ALIVE AND KICKING, SOME PEOPLE WANT TO CLOSE THE DOOR AND SAY IT DOESNT EXIST, IT DOES, RIGHT HERE IN THE GOOD OLE U.S.A. TEXAS IS READY TO SUCCEED FROM THE UNION, NOW HOW ABOUT THAT. WELL HE IS HERE TO STAY AND WE AS AMERICANS SHOULD TRY TO WORK TOGETHER AND TALK ABOUT IT, AND ADDRESS THE ISSUES THAT ARE AFFECTED AMERICA. WE CANT GET NOTHING DONE WITHOUT ALL THIS NEGATIVE ENERGY BEING SENT OUT THERE. YES I AM BLACK AMERICAN AND PROUD OF IT AND PROUD THAT WE HAVE A BLACK PRESIDENT IN THE WHITE HOUSE. AFTER ALL, WE HELP BUILD, DESIGNED IT AND NOW WE HAVE A PRESIDENT WHO IS BLACK THAT IS RESIDING IN IT.

My my. What's with the all caps? I think I'll leave it at that. I made my point  Oh, just heard the speech will be released so the parents can read it. I think that'll end a lot of the controversy of what it is about. Or make it into a wildfire!

Yes, Genenco....have no clue where the racism came from, guess some people like to use that card whenever they get the chance.....my opinion on the president has nothing to do with his color, and i'm well aware of the fact that he was left with an unpleasant situation, but he has done nothing to help inprove it, alot of talk and no action......but in this time of recession, he does manage to go on lavash vacations, and dress himself, his wife and kids in the most expensive designer clothes, even if the clothes are sent as freebies, hey why not sell them and donate the proceeds to a charitable cause??? When people are struggling to keep their homes, and find jobs and can't get health insurance the last thing we want or need to see is our president decked out in prada while his children run around in $3000.00 coats relaxing on the beaches of Barbados, the Hawaii or wherever it is he's vacationing!!!
