This series of blogs not only reviews recent work on the reform of our education system, but points out disagreements in what is wrongly considered to be a unified establishment. Some of the blogs also insist upon the materialist epistemology of the Constitution. Culture warriors take note!

I wonder what Oprah Winfrey thikns of Obama’s educational “reforms”…didn’t she endorse him while he was running for president? Hmmm, she is awfully quiet about the terrible situation teachers and students find themselves in now. And what would she say if asked about the violent student death statistics? Could someone do an interview with her and ask her what she thikns about endorsing Obama now?
