I doubt if many of those other schools were named for living, serving presidents.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
is it not proper to wait until the president has passed away? this is just wrong...
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Will it be located on Obama street, avenue, or boulevard? Will there be an Obama Park adjacent to the soon-to-be indoctrination centre?

Given Turds a bad name, I suppose.

Totally inappropriate to name anything after a living person.
It smacks of the cult of personality. We do not carry pictures through the streets of living leaders. We do not put them on stamps. We do not name buildings after them.
The simple fact that these people don’t realize how inapproriate it is just shows how out of touch they are with Americanism.

I dunno. Sort of has a nice ring to it.

Well, I guess the board could say that they like to name schools after Nobel Peace Prize winners. After all, Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize. Many public places are named after those winners, though I think most are named as memorials after people have died.
There are a few other schools which have been named for Obama. I too always thought that schools or other public facilities were not to be named after living people, and certainly not a public official who is still in office.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Yep. It is incredibly stupid to name anything after the living. What if he resigns in disgrace?

This is certainly not about the content of character.

"This was also a very good candidate because it described the unity we are trying to build between Wellston and Normandy," he said... I guess he hasn't been paying attention to Obama's version of unity.

To the commie ‘RATS, Obama is a god. I feel bad for the kids who have to put up with this kind of crap from those “teaching” them.

Well, then, you have to allow the students to use their cellphones when it comes to exams so that they can benefit from the foreign help. That’s how Dear Leader did it!

I think that was a poorly-written sentence about Ella Priest. There’s a lot of fighting between Normandy and Wellston, and she should have been the choice for the school name.
