Obama Encourages ‘Cool Kids’ to Chip-Shame Classmates Into Eating Healthier

Friday at the The White House’s 2015 Kids State Dinner, President Barack Obama told the 2015 winners of the Healthy Lunchtime Challenge to pressure their classmates to not eat foods like chips.

After joking about one of the dishes being named “barackamole,” Obama said, “The reason it’s so important for you guys to be here and to be doing what you are doing is because the truth is that parents it turns out don’t always have the most influence in terms of encouraging young people to eat healthy. What really helps is when their friends at school are all like ‘ah you are having chips, I’m sorry, I’m having the barackamole’ and then because you are a cool kid, suddenly the other kids are all like, well if that cool kid is eating broccoli, maybe I should try that broccoli out.”

‘’However, this ain’t surgery; it’s social engineering.’’

I don’t understand why nobody’s really p*ssed off about that.

This is really going to happen in the urban schools/sssssss

They eat chips and soda for breakfast. Tell them not to and they’ll shoot you.

Apparently, this administration is doing everything it can to create little Brown Shirts of America’s children. Social engineering, indeed.

Seems like we’ve heard about this before- ie kids wrt their parent’s’ drug abuse. Then again, the left is so pro-drugs, maybe I dreamt it.

Hitler did this- & the Soviets. I don’t know about China, but probably.

Uh. Um. no not that part. I'd like to give a shout out to the corpse man over there. uh like uh Like tell that dumb kid not to eat chips. You're like, the uh, cool kid, uh shut up and eat your peas.

What is it with the Obamas and obsession with food? I'm sure we'll all be hearing inspring messages to shut up and eat our dirt cookies when we are in re-education camps.
