You still don't get it Koan, conservatives don't want to get rid of public education. They want to create an environment for "urgency to change" and place at the center of that change decision parents who care about their kids education, by providing a competitive environment that encourages innovation, creativity and other options. In other words, they want to give parents a "choice". Conservatives especially want to provide parents a "choice" in locations where public education is failing miserably. Why any American would want to maintain failed schools year after year, decade after decade, is intellectually bizarre thinking. Liberals who support public education don't send their own kids to these schools. Because, most of them are wealthy and can afford the better quality private education available (e.g. Barack Obama). Conservatives want poor kids to have the same choice. Conservatives care about the children. Liberals care about union power and control at all cost. Only by reframing the issue in a dishonest way can liberals look themselves in the mirror.
