at my daughter’s HS the kids are campaigning for student council...one kid has signs all over the place which read; “VOTE TOM- MAKE KENNEDY GREAT!!” kennedy is the name of the school...
Sounds like the Principal needs to be taught a lesson in freedom in America. Since everything is war now, let the lawfare begin.
A good lesson in totalitarianism. If the left could have annulled Trump’s election, they would have. (They’re still trying to.)
Publik Skoooolz, pure crap.
Satire is good. Satire at the expense of another student, not so good.
If he had said “I will make all toilets unisex” he would have gotten an award.
Kid has good grounds to sue.
there is nothing wrong with his speech, totally innocuous
He was disqualified from the race and was given detention instead.
The authorities had no other choice but to send him to prison (detention) and award the prize to the female loser.
After all - It was the female's turn to win but he bulled his way in out of turn and took the prize that was rightfully hers.
The authorities should form a committee to investigate reports from an anonymous source of election meddling
by the Russian kids attending the High School across town.
/sarcasm off
Krause won the vote the next day, but Shawn OKeefe, the school principal, wrote in a letter that the speech “created a situation of public humiliation,” according to WPTV.
He was disqualified from the race and was given detention instead.
A total lack of humor is a hallmark of Leftists.
A witty high school boy doing satire. What is the world coming to?
Last night on YouTube I was watching re-runs of that great satire on Government by the BBC, “Yes, Prime Minister”, probably one of the funniest programs ever done on spoofing government.
I would imagine this Principal would Ban that also because it is High Satire.
Frankly kids in high school should probably watch that show and it’s predecessor, “Yes, Minister”, Paul Eddington, Nigel Hawthorne, and Derek Folds nailed it in these shows on government.
From the article:
“The Pacific Legal Foundation learned about the consequences and is providing Krause with free legal counsel. Senior Attorney Mark Miller requested that the Indian River County School District name Krause class president.”
Finally, some common sense may prevail.

Education Factories don’t like students who stand against large government and higher taxes.
Why?
Because Education Factories feed off large government and higher taxes. This ban was political - the ‘principal’ is a leftist totalitarian.
Principal Shawn OKeefe doesn’t like Krause’s politics, so he bullied the kid.
Two days after appearing on “Fox & Friends” to plead his case, J.P. Krause has been named Vero Beach High School senior class president.
“After careful review of all the circumstances surrounding the Vero Beach High School Student Government Association Senior Class President election, I have decided to overturn the principal’s decisions regarding disqualifying candidates from the election, and will accept the original election results,” Superintendent Mark Rendell said Tuesday afternoon.
I went to vero beach high. School as all is very liberal. County is extremely pro trump. No surprise superintendent overruled the principal. All political power in the county is pro trump and very conservative except the teachers unions.
