Gonna force those vouchers down the public school systems any way we can find. Consistent Rep strategy.

One "wedge" way in to bust the Teacher's Unions. They will never bend on this. Just too militant. So they will be broken. You cannot get teacher flexibility and hire/fire with them in the saddle.

public school systems

I can't let this article go by without highlighting the numbers, John. 12K per pupil in the DC district combined with the lowest 4th and 8th grade test scores in the country.

You and I don't have to post any other figures, John. These dismal numbers say it all. There is no possible defense for this kind of failure. The Bureaucracy and Unions have to go.
