That and PaperLuigi seems to be distancing himself from his ol' Texan roots.

Any state which decides to replace mention of Thomas Jefferson as one of the most influential Founding Fathers with mention of John Calvin (a horrible ******* who had no part in founding the United States) is my enemy.

Sorry. I forgot to also add that text books should be factual and not omit important details.

What I have perceived about this dilema is that it is not so much about being bias, but trying to cut out content that people would not normally know unless they read the text book.  But my argument would be that even if the person or event aren't well known, they are still worth having in the book if they were important enough to receive a mention in the first place.
