WASHINGTON – Education Secretary Arne Duncan is joining forces with two unlikely allies, the Rev. Al Sharpton and Republican former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, to push cities to fix failing schools. The trio will visit Philadelphia, New Orleans and Baltimore later this year. They plan to add more stops as their tour progresses.
TG: But, but, Newt Gingrich is a conservative Republican, isn't he?
The president has vowed to make the United States the world leader in the number of people who graduate from college.
TG: That means they have to make the requirements easier again. Then they wonder why our kids keep getting dumber (but they are trained to be cogs in the machine).
C,mon now, you know our economy suffers from a severe shortage of ethnic studies, art and recreation & leisure administration majors. How will we ever continue to function as a nation without more of them?
