We’ve long ago left the local schoolhouse on the prairie. If we can’t graduate kids who can compete with the rest of the world, we are going to be a third world nation in a matter of decades.

Hillary, is that you?
You guys must just love Teddy Kennedy and the DoE bureaucrats.
Quite obviously, you know nothing about DoE, NCLB and the other major distractions the liberal education establishment inflicts on teachers and schools.
I can't count the number of times idiots have tried to tell me that all we need to improve education is better tests. It's so simplistic, so far from the real needs of education and the hard work teachers try to do in the classroom that it astonishes me to hear people suggest we need even more of the failures of DoE.
You two should vote for the Democrat nominee if this is what you really want.
