No child left behind.. fucking hell these politicians have been using the same bull shit rhetoric for a very long time.

It's just waffle thats all... pointless waffle.

These politicians are irrelevant, they don't control shit or make any of the important decisions.

If you are still debating about the old two party system and arguing about which one is best then you have your head severely stuck up ya ass. Their purpose is to give you the impression you have freedom of choice.

@brinsona Impressive resume, sure, but maybe some people just don't agree with his 'government has all the answers' philosophy. I don't support Obama because I happen to like liberty and personal responsibility, and dislike large government, bureaucracy, control and waste.

As a student in rural Mississippi, I personally have to deal with lazy, un-encouraged people everyday. And I'm not talking about just the students. I'm not bitter about it, but it's crazy that I have to walk into my high school everyday and looking at students, teachers, and faculty and think to myself, "Come on, man! Show some incentive!" It's one thing if there are lazy students who don't care, but MS's educational system will never be fixed if the teachers and faculty don't care.

[Elizabeth01010101]

Wow - I didn't hear that proposal. I agree with your point though, teachers are grossly underpaid.

[TeddyFilmz]

I like you.

What ideology do you stand for?

I'm Marxist by the way.

[diast8r]

Exactly: This is actually a socialist model that never worked. McCain practically scoffs at teacher certification, as if testing teachers would be a bad idea. Teachers need to know this position.

Teachers do deserve more money, the good ones anyway. My fiance has 12 years experience and works over 70 hours/week. I was shocked at McCain;s proposal into the debate to put military vets in teaching positions WITHOUT ANY CERTIFICATION STANDARDS...we need teachers to be more trained...what this really means is: "we will prop up public education and with the tax cuts the rich can spend money on even better private schools...Palin and Bush are poster children for more English education
