educational equality

YES WE CAN GET AMERICA LITERATE! As a black man President Obama knows that American Education works for the privileged but NOT for the minorities - Good News! It's NOT more money but more intelligent curriculum choices! I Elementary School teach in Buskwick, Brooklyn and use Sing, Spell, Read & Write with PRE-K to Grade 5 kids, ALL KIDS learn to read with this musical, phonics based program. Test scores are always high with this program - PLEASE put it into EVERY EARLY CHILDHOOD classroom!

Abolish the party system and the Electoral College. And completely Federalize the education system so that everyone gets the same opportunities

"I believe that school makes complete fools of our young men, because they see and hear nothing of ordinary life there." --Petronius Satyricon. The framers of the Constitution never once considered education to be a role of the Federal Government. Education should begin first and foremost in the home. This next President needs to promote an amendment to the Constitution which protects a Parent's right to educate their child at home.

Motivate the American people to get up and be change agents in their own world. Teach them, guide them, and help them to find the strength, skills, and determination to build their own organizations and stand up for the causes they believe in. We can't ask the President to fix all the problems of the world, but we can, should, and must ask him/her to do as much as they can to help us as we try to. Indeed, democracy is about participation of the whole, not the leadership of the few.
