You won’t see it changed either, a nice follow up on that would be;
Unfortunately Barack never followed through with this “Change” he promised and once his health care plan was passed none of the problems with it were ever corrected. The American voters who voted for him were left bitter and angry with him because they realized they hired someone strictly by their looks and in fact not someone with good qualifications. The Democratic party realized they let the best man for the job (Bill Richardson) slip away because he didn’t have the magnanimous Colgate smile and the United States had an 8 year set back financially because of it. Such are the lesson we learn in life…

There’s no such thing as a “Common Core text.” The Common Core is merely a set of learning objectives. It doesn’t prescribe specific curriculum, let alone specific texts. The fact that a text exists, doesn’t mean it’s being assigned. And even if it is being assigned, that’s not evidence that it is in any way connected to the Common Core. Also the Common Core is NOT a federal program, nor is it a UN program as your Red Flag link claims.
You should consider holding your own writing to the same standards of clarity and accuracy as you want to hold this simple Scholastic book. (Plus, I’m pretty sure that many people DID say that white voters would not vote for a black president. They were wrong, but it was certainly part of the public discourse prior to the 2008 election. The page of text you show is a simplistic–duh, it’s for 4th graders–but not inaccurate description of the campaign. Did you somehow miss the part of race being an issue in the 2007-08 election cycle? )

No surprise here. As with anything the feds and teachers union are tied to, it’s simply more brainwashing of unsuspecting minds. If you care about your child’s education, home school or private school. Get them as far from public schools as you can.

Not to worry. Kids can’t really think clearly anymore and won’t pay attention to or remember anything they’re being told or taught.

The “reality” sentence, “Millions of voters of all races and creeds did not vote for Oboma, because he is a communist.”

Obama couldn’t have been elected, or re-elected, without the white vote, and these morons know it. Those who make their livings… Wright, Jackson, Sharpton, and their white ilk also, will never concede that America has changed, bringing their racist rants against those who now call any negativity towards Obamacare, for instance, “racism, straight up”. Their very livelihoods are dependent on racist rhetoric, which they are desperately clinging to.

Funny how, with 98% of black voters voting for the black candidate, and Obama getting the majority of the white vote, even re-elected as president, there are those who still portray the U.S. as full of white racists, as if he could have been elected without a plurality of the white vote. Even reality staring these clowns straight in the face won’t change their stupid, racist tune, as they have so much invested in it.

Obama was elected ONLY because so many whites voted for him, and they did so ONLY because they were excited by the idea of the first minority president. It’s just a shame that, liberal or conservative, the first ended up being a sniveling, conniving, empty suit that’s done nothing but damage since he’s been there.

But, we all know the facts mean nothing in Common Core. Hell, even basic arithmetic has been co-opted. This is indoctrination at its most basic.

In reply to Mack.

Doesn’t matter any more. In most areas, ANYONE running for local school boards are vetted by local Marxist flunkies. It’s all an illusion.

That’s how bad it is. And time is running out.
