The right wing has never been interested in pre school because they fear what the children are taught will conflict with what the parents teach the kids and teaching during the early years sort of sets the mind, like imprinting.

Nixon vetoed pre school for just this reason in the 70's. It is the same thing when the Republican's in Texas last year, or 2012? had a platform against " HIGHER ORDER THINKING".

Imagine that!!!??? They don't want their kids engaged in higher order thinking. Amazing.

And it was for the same reason. Science says evolution is real and many religious people do not want that taught to their kids!
