Thread Name: BS: Obama's address to school children
Subject: RE: BS: Obama's address to school children
I gather several Presidents before have done this, including Bush the First - at which time it was criticised by Democrats, and defended by Republicans.
Sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander.
However it seems a pretty strange idea all along. I can't envisaged a national address to schoolchildren by a Prime Minister if any political complexion.
