I saw this on Good Morning America this morning:

Bullying is something that “affects every single young person in our country,” President Obama said in a public service announcement on Facebook this morning.
The Obamas released the PSA to raise attention for a special White House conference to prevent bullying Thursday, according to a “Good Morning America” exclusive first look.
The conference will unite students, teachers and parents to discuss ways to prevent and respond to the estimated 13 million students a year who are bullied in American schools.
“For a long time, bullying was treated as an unavoidable part of growing up but more and more we’re seeing how harmful it can be for our kids, especially when it follows them from their school, their phone, their computer screen,” the president said in the announcement.
But the Obamas said in the announcement that there are resources and leaders in communities who are working to curb bullying.
“It’s tough enough being a kid today,” Michelle Obama said. “Our children deserve the chance to learn and grow without constantly being picked on, made fun of or worse.”
The conference will provide information on recognizing risk factors of bullying and violence prevention.
Participants can join in the conversation online at stopbullying.gov or on Facebook.

Don’t get me wrong, I think bullying is a problem. But it’s not a problem for the President of the United States. This should be a Michelle Obama issue. At most, the President should enlist some of the pro athletes he favors to hang out with to help the First Lady, but under no circumstances is this a Presidential issue.

Especially with what’s going on in Libya. Maybe the U.S. position on Middel East rebellions would be made more clear if dictators like Qaddafi, rather than bombing his people, would call them nasty names on Facebook instead.
