When I was in high school I took American history from a teacher who was not the brightest bulb on the tree. At each class session he stood up in front of the class and essentially read the lesson he had assigned us to read as homework. At the beginning of the school year he announced that although we may have started his class as being of another political persuasion we would all be Democrats when we finished his course. He was working on getting a teachers’ union established in NM that year and was very proud of that. I imagine he wanted to protect mediocre and poor teachers such as himself.
