I agree. Teachers are role models, and as such they could be seen as pushing a student/class into one form of view over another. If I had a kid, I wouldn't want him/her coming home and spouting Obama crap to me because their teacher said so. Likewise if I was voting Obama, I still wouldn't want that to happen. It's not just what I want to hear, but the whole concept. Stick to teaching. The exception might be gov't class, but then I think the teacher should keep the discussion unbiased. That doesn't happen until high school anyways, and by then I think touching on the subject of candidates and what to look for are good lessons to be learned.
