A new, unprecedented bill passed by California’s State Senate on Thursday will encourage public schools to teach students about the historical significance surrounding Barack Obama’s status as the first African-American president of the United States of America.
Assembly Bill 1921 passed with a 30-1 vote, according to the Associated Press. It was introduced by Assemblyman Dan Holden (D-Pasadena). Sen. Holly Mitchell (D-Los Angeles) says the bill would require the Instructional Quality Commission (which facilitates much of California’s Common Core framework) to consider teaching students about Obama’s election within the context of past voter discrimination, the AP notes.
Sen. Joel Anderson (R-Alpine) was the only senator who voted to strike down the bill. He said, “We’ve never done this for any previous president,” the AP notes.
Mitchell reportedly placed great emphasis on the importance of learning about “overcoming our nation’s past to elect our first black president.”

They probably wouldn’t be happy with my material.
In the Beginning, Obama Was Light.
I'm sure schools are already teaching about the omnipotence of King Obama. In my local district, we have a school renamed after him.
This joint is getting more and more like the old Soviet Union with each passing day.
Ok, kids go to page 1. Did you know that Bt’rak’s daddy knocked up a white woman and later left her to shag up with another floozie from his own tribe? Tomorrow’s test, you have to tell me the name of the only transexual in Indonesia who raised lil Bt’Rak for 20 points, m’kay?

“Sen. Joel Anderson (R-Alpine) was the only senator who voted to strike down the bill.”
Good for him for having the courage to vote against this insanity!
Wait, I thought Bill Clinton was the first black president.
thus, Sen. Joel Anderson (R-Alpine) is exactly one politician in the ca state senate i could support. well, i guess one is better than none.
Children, his darker skin is the most important thing about him. This is what you need to learn. A dark married man screwed his white mother when she was just a kid herself. Therefore, he was born with no dad around but with the very important darker skin. Therefore he is more important than any other president ever. Because his skin is a little bit darker. Ok, kids? There will be a quiz.
Give these folks $1.00 to buy a freaking clue: IT’S OVER, the cult of Obama is over.
All over now, except for the hair pulling.
All the comments at the site, so far, are ripping this up!
Do not hold back! Love this post, post of the day, it is like the old cracker-jacks commercial!
“In the Beginning, Obama Was Light.”
Depending on the audience he was pitching to...
Yes, very historical ... Pearl Harbor, December 7th, 1941, was also a pretty Historical moment, as well...
“Wait, I thought Bill Clinton was the first black president.”
Heck yeah he was, Toni Morrison said it best.
Face a fact, Bill Clinton was 100% more a brother man than that white liberal idiot in a dusky hue who haunts our white house now.
Can I get an AMEN?
(1) In the abstract, at least, the election of America's first African-American president is an important milestone.
(2) Nonetheless, I much prefer substance over symbolism. And we have paid a very dear price, I believe--in matters both domestic and international--for our election (and subsequent re-election) of this particular person.
(3) In any case, any directive that the public schools must teach about the historic nature of this man's election is not likely to be neutral--but celebratory. And that seems much less consistent with the ideal of education than it is with indoctrination.
