However, I am a parent that has allowed my children to listen to whom ever they chose and to make their own decisions in life. If my children are liberals then so be it. As long as they are open to discussion, I'm happy. I watched his speech and saw nothing in it to cause me concern at all. To each their own. I am a conservative parent.

I guess republicans want their children to not learn these skills. My parents are republican and I was an independent until george bush won the second election. So I am in the midst of controversy all the time. But, even my conservative republican parents find it appalling that parents would keep their children from hearing the President of the United States address them. He is our commander and chief. What an opportunity for those parents to teach their children respect even in the face of disagreement. I hate president bush for the unnecessary death he has caused for him and his friends oil. But, I would never have kept my children from hearing him speak. What these parents have done may have long lasting side effects. When they dislike their boss or teacher or a police officer will they react in the way their parents have taught? These parents seem terrified that their children may actual respect even agree with president. It's frightening to me. The battle to make sure not a penny of their money is spent to help someone receive medical care but cheered on bush as the numbers of dead came in? Not to mention they have a new face of racism they can't call someone a Nigger openly now so they use conservative slang as a vesicle. You should be ashamed of yourself. You will answer to a higher power for your greed. In school part of our curriculum was learning to debate. I guess republicans want their children to not learn these skills.

If anything, the speech is positive and encouraging. Obama shared some of his own background, not coming from a place of privilege, and yet ended up as a president through hard work and determination. If that does not inspire, then what does?
