People should be upset about more than just the fact that tax dollars sponsor the school. They should be outraged that a teacher in a public school is advocating one candidate over another. A teacher's role is not to lead the students to a particular candidate but to interest their students in the issues on both sides and let the students come to their own conclusions. Could you just imagine the mainstream media outcry if a public school teacher had students marching and chanting and hailing McCain????

Based on the fact that Obama has the vote of young people, I don't think students would even cooperate with that.
