— Naperville’s links to presidents, from Buchanan to Bush – Suzanne Baker (DIERSEN: Did you walk with Bush and Cheney in Naperville’s Labor Day parade in 2000? I did. Earlier that year, I asked Governor George Ryan and Senate President Pate Philip to invite Bush to walk in Wheaton’s 2000 Independence Day Parade.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/ct-nvs-president-naperville-link-st-0219-20170217-story.html
(PICTURE CAPTION: President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney walk in the Last Fling Labor Day Parade in Naperville in 2000, before they were elected to their White House posts. It was while in Naperville that Bush made his much-reported comment about a New York Times reporter being a “major league a——.” FROM THE ARTICLE: As a presidential candidate, then-Texas Gov. George W. Bush marched in the Last Fling’s Labor Day Parade in 2000 after holding a rally at Naperville North High School. It was on the rally stage before the speech when the candidate, who was oblivious the microphones were live, pointed out a veteran political reporter to his running mate Dick Cheney and said, “There’s Adam Clymer, major-league a—— from The New York Times.”)
— U.S. presidents have made a few stops in Elgin – Mike Danahey (DIERSEN: What municipality do you live in? What does the mayor of your municipality think of Republicans? What if the mayor of your municipality at his/her annual state of the city address in front of 150 dignitaries publicly insulted your municipality’s top Republican promoter not only once, but three times? What if the mayor of your municipality increasingly talked and acted like he/she a) wanted to ban Republicans from all parades in your municipality and b) drive all Republican individuals, Republican organizations, and Republican companies out of your municipality? One could compare and contrast Wheaton and Bolingbrook in this regard. Since 2000, I have taken the lead in encouraging Republican candidates and elected officials to walk in Wheaton’s Independence Day parades. This year will be the 12th year in a row that I have raised money from Republicans to sponsor entries in the parade. I 2007, I raised $2,000 from Republicans to sponsor an elephant to walk behind Congressman Roskam in the parade; outstandingly, Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar contributed $500.)

— Urbana business development – Tom Kacich
http://www.news-gazette.com/news/local/2017-02-17/toms-mailbag-feb-17-2017.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “With the primary election near, (Urbana Mayor Laurel) Prussing has been repeating that ‘In the last four years alone, we have added 115 new or expanded businesses throughout the city.’ That comes to fewer than three per month. Even so, is there any way to sort this out? For instance, how many of these ‘new businesses’ are video-gambling parlors, payday-loan storefronts, beer-and-cigarette outlets or pin-money enterprises operating from sewing rooms or garages in private homes? Also, is there a tally of how many larger-scale businesses, in that same time period, have shut down or moved to Champaign?” Better late than never: Today, we got a list from the city of Urbana of 127 businesses that have opened or expanded since 2013. The list also contains seven businesses that are “coming soon,” seven others that have moved and 19 that have closed. The new or expanded businesses include everything from a ballet studio and guitar repair shop to new restaurants and coffee shops. There’s also a medical-marijuana dispensary.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The 2017 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) will kick off next week at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in Washington DC. CPAC hid their speaker list for the past month and just started updating the list this past week. And just as we assumed — CPAC loaded the roster with committed #NeverTrumpers and ignored the grassroots supporters and websites that got Republican President Donald Trump Elected. It should really be no surprise. After all these “principled conservatives” planned a walk out protest last year for Donald Trump. Trump withdrew from the conference but the crowd did give big spender Paul Ryan a standing ovation. That’s CPAC! This year CPAC ignored many of the top Trump supporters who helped get him elected. These top election influencers will not be speaking at CPAC despite their work to get Trump elected. . .Instead the speaker list includes this committed #NeverTrumpers: . .Face it Trump supporters – CPAC still hates you.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— It’s Racial Indoctrination Day at an Upscale Chicagoland School As administrators foist ‘social justice’ on 4,000 suburban students, parents plead for balance. – PETER BERKOWITZ (FROM THE ARTICLE: Instead of teaching, the school’s aim seems to be hammering home to students that racism plagues America and will persist until white people admit their unjust privilege, renounce their unearned power, and make amends for the entrenched oppression from which they continue to profit handsomely.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/its-racial-indoctrination-day-at-an-upscale-chicagoland-school-1487375679
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What passes for education at many American public schools is too often closer to indoctrination. Consider the seminar day that New Trier High School, in Winnetka, Ill., on Chicago’s affluent North Shore, is planning for Feb. 28. The title for the all-school seminar is “Understanding Today’s Struggle for Racial Civil Rights.” That very term, “racial civil rights,” is misleading, since civil rights protect Americans’ freedoms regardless of their race. Judging from the roster of scheduled events, the seminar might be more accurately titled “Inculcating a Progressive View of Social Justice.” Here are a few of the offerings scheduled for presentation to New Trier’s roughly 4,000 students: “SPENT: A Simulation to See How Long You Can Survive on Minimum Wage”—which touches on race at best tangentially. “Developing a Positive, Accountable White Activism for Racial Civil Rights”—which promotes a divisive view of race as a primordial fact, the essence of identity, a bright line between oppressed and oppressor. “One Person One Vote: Can the Voting Rights Act Be Saved?”—which absurdly suggests that the Voting Rights Act is at risk of being repealed. There are plenty of sessions on the connections that music, art and culture have with civil rights. Very little programming, however, is devoted to actually explaining to students what civil rights are and what their place is in this country’s political tradition. Yet the continuing quest to fulfill America’s founding promise is unintelligible without a grasp of how civil rights are grounded in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Or without an understanding of the often-heroic struggle for civil rights over the course of American history—the abolition movement, the Civil War, the great Reconstruction constitutional amendments, the grievous setback of Jim Crow, the modern civil-rights movement, the landmark Supreme Court cases like Brown v. Board of Education. Instead of teaching, the school’s aim seems to be hammering home to students that racism plagues America and will persist until white people admit their unjust privilege, renounce their unearned power, and make amends for the entrenched oppression from which they continue to profit handsomely. This despite the school board’s written policy to provide a “balanced view” on “controversial issues,” and the seminar’s stated purpose “not to promote the philosophy of one political party or another.” On Monday a group of concerned New Trier parents will make a final attempt to persuade the school board to alter the seminar’s programming to include a diversity of views about race and rights in America. The parents have proposed, for example, inviting black conservative intellectuals—such as my Hoover Institution colleague Shelby Steele and this newspaper’s Jason Riley—or people like Pastor Corey Brooks, the director of Project Hood, which seeks to end violence and build communities on Chicago’s South Side. So far, these efforts have been met with stonewalling and vitriol. On Feb. 6, a group of recent New Trier graduates—some of whom helped plan the seminar day—published an open letter to explain why the parents’ proposals are unreasonable and immoral. The letter opens with a long quotation from Martin Luther King Jr.’s 1963 masterpiece, “Letter From a Birmingham Jail.” The implicit message is that the New Trier parents are comparable to the “white moderate” King reproaches for preferring order to justice. King’s admonition to the comfortable—to imagine themselves in the place of the persecuted and downtrodden—is a timeless message, but inapt for the situation. New Trier failed to teach the letter writers the distinction between political activism and education. The seminar day presupposes that the pervasiveness and potency of racism in America are facts beyond dispute, rather than hypotheses to be critically examined. That’s why the letter writers dismiss the parents’ desire for a multiplicity of views as an effort “to distract the conversation.” Let’s hope that the concerned New Trier parents succeed Monday in teaching the New Trier school board about education’s proper purpose. If not, maybe the best thing might be for more families to follow the parent group’s advice: “Excuse your child for the day, and encourage him or her to volunteer”—perhaps with Corey Brooks and Project Hood.)
