Always happy to talk math. For free.

Thanks. If I have any trouble, I'll be sure to message you.

You could send a video.  That would be interesting.

[aikiboy1111111]

Rest assured I will. Thanks for the suggestion.

wow, finish a thought man... lay off the caffeine... It may help if you sit down and outline your main points and address each one in order. Slow down, prepare... Finishing a sentence may also help... no offense...

That's why we have the electoral college, buddy. I understand quadratic equations and most equations and things that can be taught. I'm not a sharpie. We need more IQ tests for such positions and certain people should be barred. Personal limits. Everyone can do something. Not everyone is fit for everything, nor can they do everything, it should be noted.

tracking would be nice.

Any sort of requirement for voting tends to be a slippery proposition, since the politicians make the laws, and hence, can make the test slanted towards their constituents.

It would be great if it could be implemented though. A 12th grade math exam for anyone running for office and voting; not just solving 1 quadratic equation.

Hell, it might cut down on spending if the politicos understood the difference between a $700 billion bailout and a $700 million one :/

Your education system is bad because your society is self centered and run by ideas that there is not country but America. You dont take a world view to education. PS if you are going to comment on a subject dont waffle shit
