Using kids to get out the Democratic Vote (Racine WI Schools at it again after textbook flap)
Real Debate Wisconsin | 10/27/08 | Fred Dooley

Using the kids to get out the Democratic Vote.

Four years ago the Racine Unified School District drew attention for trying to use children for partisan election get out the vote purposes.

They are at it again.

There is a get out the vote effort to send kids door to door being run by Voces de la Frontera, an advocacy organization for illegal aliens that we have reported on extensively in the past. They are highly partisan and as dirty as the day is long. Voces de la Frontera is also working with the Racine branch of the NAACP in this get out the vote effort.

Neither of these groups are non-partisan, in fact they are both highly partisan.

There is absolutely zero chance that Voces de la Frontera or the Racine NAACP will take kids to go door to door to get out the vote in the more conservative parts of the district.

I have left a message with the new Superintendent of Racine Schools on this issue and will report on his response to my inquiry when and if he returns my call.

In the interim here is the notice being forwarded through the schools to our kids.

Using the kids to get out the Democratic Vote.

This is the same school district that recently had the issue with the Obama textbook.

They tried this four years ago as well:
Racine, WI - Need FReeper help to counter massive liberal GOTV effort using public school students!

FReepers were able to stop the school from officially sanctioning the event:
Horlick voting project canceled

Four years ago, some students did get parental permission to skip school, and were used to get out the vote in mostly Democratic wards. Although the school involved then also served Republican areas as well, those areas were ignored.

By calling attention to this flagrant politicization of the public schools, FReepers were able to minimize participation. Let's do it again!

This should not even be a left or right issue. Public school children should not be subject to partisan indoctrination or used for political campaigns. These liberals should be ashamed of themselves.

I was stationed in Great Lakes, lived in Kenosha. I loved Kenosha, I didn’t know it was so liberal around there.

Liberals are incapable of feeling shame.

We have the same problem with Seals who trying to win the seat from Kirk in our congressional district.

Seals’ doesn’t have a lot of money so he cheaps out by using our public schools for electioneering.

Seal has used our High School Newspaper to advertise himself.
Seal used school time at taxpayers expense to talk to students in History Class! Start passing around flyers and stickers. Kids had them on walking around school!

I went to our Lake County RNC to drop off the material from the Seal Team.

It just makes me sick!
I pay good taxes for our high school for someone’s personal campaigning!

You know what would happen if I went around to Science class and start preaching Creationism!

It would not be permitted!

But Democrats can do what they want because it’s for the chilllllldrrrrrrreennnnn!
