Really?
How much is this going to cost?
I thought he was going to focus "with laser-like intensity" on jobs.
Silly me!
Trouble Lurking Ahead For Obama's Education Focus
WASHINGTON -- Signs of trouble are arising for President Barack Obama's plan to put education overhaul at the forefront of his agenda as he adjusts to the new reality of a divided government. read the rest

Solution? The feds need to close down the Department of Education and let the states run their own schools. The states need to sell the schools and privatize them. End of problem.

We have been morally and intellectually dumbed-down to the point where right reason has all but been obliterated from our citizens. We are quickly becoming a nation of people who worship only Hollywood stars and gorge our minds on the sinkhole of MTV.

I really am sure the "One" really, really will focus like a laser on jobs, I just don't know which union will benefit the most. Thanks again for the link "young lady".....
I miss President Reagan.
Just sayin'
He wouldn't have put up with these Socialist pukes.
He may have had "the disease" but he was still a better leader than our current Clown in Chief is.
President Reagan was an American.
I feel a rant coming on. :)
Education reform is laudable, but unfortunately, Obama will do for education precisely what he did for health care. His reform will be anything but.
To really reform education, there are three things that must happen. First, the federal Dept. of Education has to be abolished and responsibility for education sent back to the state and local governments. Second, the teachers unions have to be abolished as well. Third, the qualifications to teach have to be altered -- no more useless "education" degrees. A history teacher needs to be qualified in history. A math teacher needs to be qualified in math. A biology teacher in biology, a Spanish teacher in Spanish, etc. The education degree certification cycle is nothing more than a racket.
Now, I see absolutely no possibility in the near term that any of those reforms will come to pass. Therefore, I am not optimistic about the prospects of reforming our schools.
