This week Senator Obama reached the number of committed delegates necessary for the nomination of his party. Until now education has not been prominent on the radar screen, but this will change. We have two candidates with widely divergent views and a lack of consensus across the nation as to what the appropriate role should be for the federal government in education going forward.
Barak Obama (D)
John McCain (R)

Thanks for this post, Bob. There could not be a clearer difference on education issues than these two videos demonstrate. McCain’s position is completely contrary to the interests of public education.

Thanks for posting the video. I’m sure all teachers will back Obama, once we get over the loss of Hillary from the race.

McCain who? In my estimation, he can’t hold a candle to Obama.

It would be much easier if the only issue was public education.
