Yes Obamas think they are above others, but how many "GOOD SCHOOLS" R hardworking, struggeling taxpayers supposded to support? I really care for All children so this is NOT a snide question. But I work my tail off to keep my home. My own schooltaxes (alone) are an additonal $5K. We make the sacrifice because we want our kids in good schools. Believe me we sacrifice! How can we bear the load of private charter schools etc, for folks who refuse to work and sacrifice? False ideals R Y I am now GOP.

Could be great if he focuses on economic and bin laden. Probably will be more worried about banning guns and citizenship for people that sneaked into the country.

The following question was asked Q:Have you decided on a private or public school for your daughters?

A:We'll be making a decision about that in the future.

You can bet that his choice(as it is now in Chicago)will be for a private school. Like all politicians who oppose vouchers he does not care if the average person has this option. He is more interested in protecting the jobs of the teachers union. A big civil rights issue in america is the poor schools that many children must attend.
