The Burlington Township School District received publicity in 2009 after a video posted on YouTube by a parent without school approval showed more than a dozen children at B. Bernice Young Elementary School singing a song praising President Barack Obama, which Conservative groups cited as a means of indoctrinating students to support the President. At the conclusion of the song, the children pump their fists and chant "hip, hip, hooray!" The song had been performed in conjunction with Black History Month activities and when the author of the book ''I Am Barack Obama'' visited the school the next month〔Kates, Brian. ("Conservatives plan protest over pro-Obama song at New Jersey's B. Bernice Young School" ), ''Daily News (New York)'', October 12, 2009. Accessed July 1, 2011. "The songs drew national attention when their performances at the B. Bernice Young School in Burlington Township were posted on YouTube last month. In it, second graders sing: 'Mmm, mmm, mmm, Barack Hussein Obama/He said that all must lend a hand/ To make this country strong again.' ... Conservatives say the songs show children being indoctrinated to idolize Obama. School officials deny the allegation."〕〔via Associated Press. ("N.J. education chief orders review after Burlington school children learn song about Obama" ), NJ.com, September 25, 2009. accessed December 10, 2014. "New Jersey's education commissioner ordered a review after a YouTube video shows school children learning a song celebrating President Barack Obama. The video shows more than a dozen youngsters at B. Bernice Young Elementary School in Burlington Township."〕
