As to the subterfuge claim, I'll like to ask all the following question.

If Ronald Reagan asked to do the same thing in 1983, would you be saying the same thing as you are saying now?
Well, as a matter of fact, I said that it was a good thing that the President was addressing children and encouraging them to engage in the proces of politics. I didn't agree with the politics he said he favored, but the speech did get kids to thinking about their place in America.
