Wondering whether elementary school students are truly indoctrinated in the left wing agenda? Well, wonder no more. They are; and it's worse -- far worse -- than you can possibly imagine. Consider, if you will, McGraw-Hill's, a textbook designed for third-graders and published in 2010. If you'd assume that it was intended to teach kids about America's founding and its institutions of government, you'd assume wrong. The book is a veritable cornucopia of left wing spin.. It reads, "These rights [of citizens] are listed in the part of the U.S. Constitution called the Bill of Rights".• Two pages cover the Declaration of Independence• Two pages describe the Constitution, all of which are devoted to the three branches of government and separation of powers• No pages are devoted to James Madison and the authors of the Constitution; there is no mention of federalism• Six pages are spent describing the background of Paul Revere• Ten pages are devoted to the history of democracy in ancient Greece.• George Washington and Abraham Lincoln are mentioned only in passing, almost as if they are immaterial scenery on the road to diversity and social Utopia. In the section entitled "America's Freedom Fighters":• Eight pages are spent covering the life of Frederick Douglass• Five pages on Susan B. Anthony• Six pages on Mary McLeod Bethune,• Zero pages are devoted to the life of Abraham LincolnIn fact,is described only as a backdrop to the lives of Frederick Douglas and Mary McLeod Bethune. In the section entitled "The Fight for Freedom Continues":• Seven pages are spent on praise for FDR (including 2 pages on Pearl Harbor)• Six pages on Eleanor Roosevelt• Six pages are devoted to Thurgood Marshall• Six pages are spent on LBJ's life and the wondrous effects of "Great Society"• Six pages are spent on Cesar Chavez and the lionization of the labor movementThere is no list of American Presidents. There is no mention of the two-party system, nor the fact that there exists a group called "The Republican Party".And there is no mention of a Republican President other than Abraham Lincoln, who merits but a picture and a single sentence. In fact, you would not know from reading this book that there ever was a Republican President.A total of four paragraphs are spent describing World War II. There is no mention of President Harry S. Truman or of the atomic bombs dropped on Japan to mercifully end World War II.There is, of course, no mention of Ronald Reagan.One of the goals we Constitutional conservatives must have is to regain control of our public school systems, which appear to be -- if this book is any indication -- completely out of control.
