Democrat darling Talarico called out for making sixth-grade public students write ‘Obama memoirs’
Every delay has consequences.
Democrat darling and Texas Senate candidate James Talarico is taking heat after it was discovered that, as a public school teacher in San Antonio, he made his sixth-grade students write "Obama memoirs" celebrating his election.
Corey DeAngelis, a school choice advocate and research fellow at the Heritage Foundation, called the assignment "disqualifying" for a Senate hopeful in Texas.
In a Facebook post by Talarico dated Nov. 13, 2012, he announced, "Today, we finished writing our Obama memoirs," explaining that "students wrote a memoir of Election Night from the point of view of a member of the Obama family."
One of the memoirs shared by Talarico showed one of his students writing as if they were former President Barack Obama’s child, saying, "I was crying when my father was giving his speech" and praising "those lovely words that came out of his mouth" during his election night speech.

Talarico commented, "Our Wall of Fame has been updated with our awesome Obama Family Memoirs!"
The Obama memoirs are not the only posts from Talarico’s teacher account drawing criticism. Some have also taken issue with a Sept. 14, 2011, post depicting a classroom "free thinker" display. Among the figures labeled as free thinkers were Obama, Bill Gates, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor and Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro.

Other figures included in the display ranged from Ludwig van Beethoven to Frida Kahlo to Jay-Z. Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling was also included. Not included, however, were any Republican or conservative leaders.
Some have also criticized Talarico for a Sept. 4, 2012, post in which he encourages students to watch the Democratic National Convention to see Castro, a former mayor …
