Because he can.
“Why does Obama Send His Kids to a Non-Union Private School?”
Because he’s a filthy hypocrite . . . and an elitist!
Excellent analysis!
These dems are nothing but hypocritical when it comes to where they send THEIR kids to school. But I’m guessing the ill-informed public knows nothing about these politicians and where their kids are educated.
Politicians ought to be forced to send their kids to public schools. Either that or allow for the funding of charter schools for everyone.
“Why does Obama Send His Kids to a Non-Union Private School?”
This question seriously needs to be thrown at him during a press conference. On camera, under pressure, I would love to see this weasel squirm.

Obama like all (so-called) “progressives” in today’s politics have more in common with the old divine right of kings than with Socialists (Hmmm??? maybe there’s no difference). They see themselves as a privileged ruling class who must control us “lessers”. His kids go to private non-union school ‘cause they’re “elite”... also after he trashed the voucher programs for poor kids, I’m sure they had some openings.
The duplicity we see in most Leftists (aka: “Progressives”) causes us liberty minded folks to accuse them of hypocrisy... but Leftists are NOT (technically) hypocrites IMHO… they’re “ends justifies the means” types. Hypocrisy is just another “tool” in the box… as anything that advances their cause of tyranny is “good”. First you must understand, “Progressives” use much the same language as we (freedom, justice, prosperity, etc), but it’s code… the meaning 180 opposite from what we assume! When you know this, all makes sense in a (REAL) creepy kind of way.
Not that I appreciate the privileges libs afford themselves...but in this case....I would not send my kid to public school with a SS detail if I were POTUS. Too much of a security risk and hassle IMO..
That makes no sense - why should a private school be inherently more safer than a public school? That was a straw man that the liberals used to justify Chelsea Clinton going to a private school.
If public schools are that dangerous - shouldn’t something be done? Are you saying we cannot protect children in a public school? Amy Carter was protected.
Agreed; simple fact: it’s much easier for the Secret Service to monitor and protect the President’s children in a smaller private school than the Public schools. It would also be less costly (fewer agents needed, fewer observation posts, fewer police needing to patrol the immediate neighborhood). I doubt the question of “Union” teachers ever entered into the equation.
“They see themselves as a privileged ruling class who must control us “lessers”.”
That’s why these new millionaires feel they have a right to tell us, the lower class slobs, what to do. We’ve made millionaires out of the Clintons, these two clowns, and numerous other busy-bodies, most of whom should be in prison.
Why does Obama Send His Kids to a Non-Union Private School?
Because he can keep their record hid too.
When GWB was gov of TX, his twin daughters attended public schools.
It’s distracting/disruptive for the rest of the children in class if one kid has to have an entourage accompany them...
Union “collective bargaining” = extorsion.
You don’t give us what we want, we will strike your aaaaaasss and get what we want.
As soon as they see there is success and money, they move in and extort the piece of pie.
Football anyone?
Exactly...
It won't happen.
“teachers pay 10-40% of their health insurance premiums, pay into a defined contribution retirement plan, and receive only two personal days a year.”

“It won’t happen.”
I know it won’t, but I can daydream. :)
Obama’s hypocrisy is doubled since millions of federal employees working under him are denied collective bargaining.
