Welcome to the schools, Mr. Obama

Why should our children not know
How to be somebody.
Slaves hid in closets and
Learned to read and write.

Why should our children not know
How to be somebody.
Attention Deficit Disorder is no reason
Not to learn to read and write.

Why should our children not know
How to be somebody.
Study a little harder and
Learn to read and write.

Why should our children not know
How to be somebody.
I studied the best I could with ADD,
Learning to read and write.

Why should our children not know
How to be somebody.
Mr. President, encourage my child to
Learn to read and write.

WOW! YOU KNOW RIGHT...LOUISA! I AM GLAD I CAME UPON THIS ONE. IT IS SO APPROPRIATE, AS SCHOOL TIME IS FAST APPROACHING. MY LITTLE GRAND DAUGHTER IS GETTING READY FOR KINDERGARDEN AND, OF COURSE, HER MOTHER IS CONCERNED ABOUT HER BEING 'READY' TO LEARN. WE ALL(PARENTS, GOV'T AND TEACHERS) NEED TO HELP OUR CHILDREN TO BE SUCCESSFUL AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
