What, I wonder, is Norm referring to when he says he thinks it's kind of crazy--the podcast itself, or the fact that people have taken issue with it. Some context, please.
If I was paying any attention in my history classes, I remember that it was JFK who admonished his fellow Americans to "Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country." How is that any different from suggesting that students "write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the President."?
We can only hope that his quote was referring to people who have an issue with it. The story didn't make it seem that way, so if that's case, the reporter did a poor job.
I am currently in my sixth year in education as a Spanish teacher. I have been married since 2003 to Rachel. I have a sister who is 12 years older than me and has two young sons. My parents live in the small town where I and they grew up and have been married over 40 years. I frequently visit them, and I also enjoy visiting (nearly every day on the phone) with my 82-year-old grandma who lives 10 miles east of my parents in the country.
