President Obama didn't ask the question "What can you do to help the president?". The Dept. of Education did. They retracted it by request and without protest. However, people still want to bring it up.
He gave a good speech to the kids that many conservatives who had criticized him for making backed away from. (including the head of the Florida GOP who called it "indoctrination" and "brainwashing").
What is being served by continuing an argument that has, for all intents and purposes, failed?

What is being served now is to answer the critics who are posting what, to me, seem like veiled cries of "racism!" Let me be 100% crystal clear on this... opposing Obama is not racism. Disliking Obama's policies and ideology is not racism. I would very happily support other black people for President, such as Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams or Michael Steele. I am just as opposed to Obama as I would be a white man with the same ideology and background... no more and no less.
You know what IS an example of racism? All the people who voted for Obama because he is black, and "it's about time we had a black President", no matter who he is, what he believes, how little experience he has, or who he associates with.
