Given the preponderance of left wing teachers, and the idea on the left that pushing their goals trumps the goals of objectivity (see “citizen journalism” for an example), I’d rather the teachers avoided ideology and politics in general.
Instead, they put it into everything – even math books have to be politically correct (read: leftish correct). American herstory has become a story of oppression, and the success and contributions *only* of the oppressed (women, blacks – err… African Americans, Indians…- err, Native Americans, etc).
The failure of political education in America is due both to the ideological persuasion of teachers and the educational elite, and the general incompetence of both.
