- versus - equal justice under the BILL of RIGHTS,-  
 
&lt;b&gt;OBAMA&#039;s &amp; Vygotsky&#039;s learning theory is called Constructivism.&lt;/b&gt;  
 
See: American Thinker &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/03/preschools_are_using_a_marxist.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/03/preschools...&lt;/a&gt;  
 
OBAMA&#039;s &amp; Vygotsky are contemptuous of reality.  
 
THEY are led to conceive methods that trap children in progressivism&#039;s central struggle:  
 
Preschools, which use Vygotsky&#039;s creative play to relieve the tension between pretend and real worlds, implant fairy-tale realities in children.  
 
A self-described Marxist thinker, Vygotsky maintained, &quot;[In] play it is as though [a child] were a head taller than himself. &quot;The psychologist upended the idea that &quot;play is imagination in action,&quot; insisting that imagination constitutes &quot;play without action.&quot;  
 
Stop global warming.  
Erase inequality.

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t know why Obama doesn&#039;t drill down and promote the &#039;full monte&#039; of pre-school enrollment commencing within one hour of the child&#039;s birth.  In fact the registration could be done as the child was being taken to the nursery, and the child would then be fully authorized to being directly transferred from the nursery to the pre-school a week or so later (cutting out the &#039;middle-mom&#039;), if you will. 
 
This is obviously just another thinly veiled suck-up to low information voters/47%ers that will save child care expenses for taking care of children that they only produced to gain other benefits from the government coffers.   
 
Welfare needs to be terminated except for the physically/mentally impaired (as verified by several doctors), and even then with annual verifications to prevent fraud (which is currently out of control).  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sounds to me like Obama just wants more socialism, and redistribution of wealth...So why don&#039;t you, and the Progressives lead by example, by emptying your wallets, and life savings to Obama to get it started?  Then if it&#039;s successful, you and he and thee can take all the credit?  Agree? ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The State wants control of the Children once the Health Care Bill culls the Herd. 
 
Break the Family up more while producing Cars too small to have one-Family that is. 
 
But it&#039;s &quot;day care&quot; they say- in the way of the collective- unmentioned. 
 
We have breakfast, lunch and even dinner at some Schools. Anyone see sleep overs in the future?

Educating a 2 or 3 year old should be left to the parents. Here in lies the problem, the parents are too busy doing nothing or shooting dope. 
 Barack concentrate on something you know about, like balancing the budget (ha ha ha). ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Clare, we know factually that Head Start absolutely makes a huge difference to childrens&#039; success in kindergarten and beyond.  My wife works in a local kindergarten and can tell in the first hour of the first day of a new year which children had pre-school and which didn&#039;t.  The ones that did are far better at reading and just knowing how to behave in school, which is critical to learning.   
 
You write as if the entire focus of public education is to indoctrinate children into liberal worldviews of &quot;diversity&quot; and so on, which is ridiculous. That does exist, but it&#039;s hardly the reason for public education&#039;s existence. 
 
To your credit, your children definitely would have benefitted from the co-op pre-school they went through in the &#039;60s.  Most people don&#039;t have &quot;co-ops&quot; at their disposal, nor can they afford private pre-school like the well-off can. ]]></description>

Where do people think such programs, meant to be universal, would come from other than the state?  Wealthy people, to their credit, already get their children into pre-school. The rest of us, meaning most of us, send kids to kindergarten with no school training, and very few academic skills.   ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My three children greatly benefited from a cooperative nursery school in the 1960s, but it was locally organized and not state-imposed. Under the new &quot;diversity training&quot; dispensation from liberals, I doubt that a Head Start type program would actually increase reading and science skills. I wrote about the contrasting types of child-rearing here: &lt;a href=&quot;http://clarespark.com/2013/02/17/aristo-democrats-want-pre-school-for-four-year-olds/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://clarespark.com/2013/02/17/aristo-democrats...&lt;/a&gt;. Separation anxiety was an issue for all the children in our co-op, as Blumer suggests, but it is hardly insuperable. The issue of whether or not to support pre-school for poor children is unclear without explaining the proposed purpose and exact programs that want support. I wouldn&#039;t trust anything that comes out of this administration. ]]></description>
