Consider for a moment how much better off our nation would be if educators hadn't spent the last few decades mucking around with education reform. We might actually have graduating seniors who can read and perform basic arithmetic.

Reforming education was right up Bill Ayers alley......wasn't it? His aim was to dumb down kids to accept socialism.
