  • He knows what he's talking about. What a dude. Way to fight for, and work hard for, the people.

  • If I were a parent, teacher's unions would make my blood boil. Instead, they just make me nauseous.

  • yeah, if the teacher couldn't pass the test on the subject they are teaching then they wouldn't have graduated college to begin with.

  • to bad Dem's empower the Teachers Unions and give them their power and lower the standards for minority teachers.

  • Get rid of the teachers and professors. The school system is outdated, obsolete. We can nationalize education. We could pay the best professors in the world to record their lessons on every subject, make those videos accessible through the internet, cable tv, etc. And instead of paying teachers annually to do the same old song and dance, we could just pay the students to learn and pass the tests on these recordings. We need to put the carrots in front of the students, not the teachers!

  • legislator take a testit's called elections.

  • Fat guy tactic is screaming and manipulation people emotion.

  • @DieFatorLiveThin They are. Check with your state education department

    on teaching credential requirements.  You must have a degree in the area,

    pass a general and an area exam. He said every 5 years which a radical

    departure. No other profession requires that.

  • @miguelcotto23 Do us all a favor. Homeschool YOUR kids.

  • Teachers should be tested on their material. The union rep poses a false equivalency in asking the politician to take tests on the legislative process. He isn't expected to pass on his knowledge to others and isn't measured on that exercise. Teachers are. Unfortunately, the problem that remains in the curriculum itself, which is hopelessly out of date.

  • Jeff Smith is my favorite democrat and hero!

  • we can thank comrad stalin for unions
