It is even worse with the word “socialism”.

I'm not too sure about that. Many are more aware of what socialism is all about, but they think it is a good thing!

If you don’t call Obama a communist, most of the American public will stare at you blank faced.

Exactly! Calling him all the PC names makes no dent at all.

Thank you NEA for 40 years of “dumbing down” America!

Yes, but parents have played a role as well. My parents made sure I knew what communism was at home. Everything wasn't left to the schools. I spoke at length to a father of kids from 7-17 last night. Believe me when I say his kids know what it is as well and it has caused more than a few problems at school.

We need to get back to basics -- personal responsibility, and the idea that parents, not schools or government, are responsible for raising their children would be a good start.

I had that advantage of parental tutoring as well. It is crucial to have this these days.
