<<Republicans do have educational proposals in their "voucher" system. Democrats need to counter that.>>

Yeah, and we all know what that means. Money for religious schools.

If you want to dumb down the country even more just start replacing public schools with religious schools.

IMO a religious school is an oxymoron.

Religion teaches dogma and dogma is poison to education.

"Republicans do have educational proposals in their "voucher" system."

LOL! The "voucher" system (R)'s propose would provide white people with the money required above the vouchered amount a way into private schools, and provide white people with the money to pay for private schools entirely out of their own pocket with a subsidy. The black folks who can't afford the extra money would be left in the public schools. It's a plan for re-segregation.

On top of that, it would kill public education. There's only so much money available.
