a liveable minimum wage and endorse the Democrats' plan to rebuild America's school systems.

You're not trotting out the old "liveable minimum wage" BS are you. The vast majority of minimum wage earners are kids. These aren't career jobs and people who attempt to raise a family on career minimum wage jobs should have better sense and most do. Minimum wage laws increase unemployment taking away the opportunity to gain experience and skill to allow a move up the ladder.

Over 80% of economists believe in a war on poverty but 60% think minimum wage is counter-productive.

What school plan? New lower standards? Think not, think again.

Sure, Senor Bush will promote amnesty and the Hispanics will vote against him. You make them sound stupid.
