It is dangerous to have young children praising political office holders. Remember Nazi Germany and the Hitler Youth? If American children are singing praises of politicians in the schools I guess it is not much different than back in the old communist countries where this sort of youth propaganda was promoted. Hopefully it won't spill over into the churches, if it hasn't already happened.
