"There would be a right-wing revolution if suburban public schools were forced to accept inner-city voucher students" I'm afraid that statement is just another example of your PREJUDICED views of middle class America.

RE: "There would be a right-wing revolution if suburban public schools were forced to accept inner-city voucher students." >>> Any student who meets the academic entrance requirements (i.E., passed the mandated testing and in the appropriate grade), and presents a valid voucher could not be denied admission. >>> Competition - as a general rule - is a GOOD thing. Racism is a bad and stupid thing. Re: "A large part of the voucher program is political: GWB and the Repubs seeking to capture more of the Catholic vote." >>> No kidding <G> But why should a reasonable and productive public policy be opposed just because there are some base political motives behind it? That begs the larger question: It's the kid's education that's important.
