I have been listening to Steve Miller for years on Larry Elder and wanted to spread the word on what seems to be happening for the better in his former high school. Let's keep the pressure on!

Most schools nowadays put a lot of emphasis on "critical thinking skills". Amazingly, this means that there is only one recognized way to view political situations, and dissent is not tolerated. Steve Miller deserves credit for fighting against such garbage.

One mole can do a lot of damage. Once inside, it's like shooting fish in a barrel.

More evidence that this nation is headed for perilous times. Today's twenty-somethings and their public-schooled successors have been indoctrinated with the revisionist lies of the left.

Our future is in their hands in part because we allowed it to happen. Al Gore was ahead of his time. The Howard Deans are coming sooner or later.

Our high school placed a tax increase initiative on the ballot to generate some revenue. To the districts tremendous surprise, it failed, and I was named the prime cause.

Money stolen from the parents cant benefit the kids in any meaningfull way except the propagation of leftist propaganda

With more money in mom and dad's pockets...the kids can go on to a real university of tech school and by the grace of God ...get a real education...

This kid should be the chief administrator in his school....wisdom far beyond his years...and obviously gained in spite of the teaching staff

This is awesome work.

I wonder if young Mr. Miller will be able to make similar inroads against the entrenched leftist establishment at Duke. Certainly he'll find a target-rich environment there.

We may be hearing more from Steve Miller.

It's bad - real bad - but the political indoctrination of our youth is not guaranteed to stick. Many here on FR admit to holding "liberal" viewpoints as youths. Who can deny the idealism of our young? Their hearts are in the right place, usually. But what happened, that they had this epiphany? We entered the real world - where things are most assuredly not quite like we'd been told. I would argue that the lies and propaganda ladled out to our young only serve in the long run to make much more staunch conservatives than would otherwise be the case. "Liberalism" in its current incarnation cannot survive, because it's a lie - reality can only be staved off for so long.

You took the words out of my mouth. Duke is just like his high school.

"I have been listening to Steve Miller for years "


Me too, although I understand that some people call him Maurice.

This kid rocks.

Duke will be a much tougher nut to crack, but he's got some experience now.
