    I think the invasion of Panama (1990) proves that isn't true at all. Of course, Carter could have fucked it up as Biden did Afghanistan...

    what does the fact this country, 40 years after you say carter screwed our educational system, leads the world by far in medical and scientific innovations and patents and production, WHICH ARE CONNECTED TO GREAT EDUCATION, have to do with it? EVERYTHING.

    Not because of public education we don't. Our university system is top notch, but less than a third of Americans qualify or graduate from that.

    you have to have a solid foundation BEFORE you can understand and flourish with higher education. if public schools were not preparing students for these advanced courses, we would not be leading the world.

    HAHAHA. Did you really say that? Our colleges are terrible. Half the "workers" are administrators not teachers and half the teachers teach useless liberal arts crap like gender studies. We also have rampant grade inflation. And there is the insane cost. When the govt started its guaranteed loans program, tuition doubled.

    American public schools are awful . Math and science aren't taught anymore because blacks can't learn things like that. The future looks terrible.

    I'll say it again. We need exit exams to graduate from HS. The SAT is a good place to start.

    His point is false. The black pop was the same % when from Kennedy's speech until today. His fallacy applied to true facts makes one wonder why Asians and Hispanics are so stupid

    The SAT is too narrow a test. It tests only math and English skills. The ACT is better.

    Fine. The ACT would work too. But we have to have exit exams for HS. The blacks are allowed to graduate even though most can't read or tell you what 12+19 is.
