Are people insane? ??? Bring down standards for everyone....  ;D

Comment: "Only in America can an entire 'culture' of people do nothing collectively to improve their lot and promote education in the home, yet want, expect, and demand the same results as those who do. Shame on my whiteness which caused my mother to read to me every evening!"

Teacher says he helped write Common Core standards to combat white privilege

May 22, 2014

A Monday night debate in New Hampshire on the pros and cons of the controversial Common Core testing standards has drawn national attention due to the inflammatory and anemic statements by the proponents.

Held at St. Anselm’s College in Manchester, the quote of the night from the six participants came from Dr. David Pook, who teaches Social Studies and English at the tony private school, Derryfield, reported radio host Rich Girard, who was there.

White privilege is the latest buzz word thrown around by the left.  The term became popular after the election of Obama.

The lines are getting so blurry, man.  It might be easier to count how many issues the 2016 repub nominee DOESNT agree with the dems on lol... Jeb supports common core, and I bet many of the others will too, if pressed on it.  I know you love to just paint people with the "liberal" brush, but maybe we can call them something else, in order to include both democrats + RINOS?

The lines are always blurry when someone is running for President.  Obama mouthed a lot of centrist nonsense,  GWB ran on compassionate conservatism, Clinton initially campaigned on reducing the size..but not scope...of big government.   In my lifetime I do not recall a Presidential election that was won by a strict doctrinaire.. and yes that includes Reagan.

If you're white and don't admit that it's great, you're an asshole!

White's have  definitely done their share of 'harm' to humanity throughout the ages, no doubt.
But, Whitey has done a lot of good for the world, as much as any race - FACT
The oceans were explored and  mapped, space, the sciences, art, literature, economics,  medicine, engineering, the list is endless. Whitey has contributed everywhere -good and bad for sure, but def more good than bad.
Seems like everybody can be proud to be black or a latina or gay or lesbian... but can you imagine a politician saying they are PROUD to be WHITE- ? That would be political suicide and everybody knows it
It wasn't only whitey that did the above mentioned, everybody knows that, but whitey played the BIGGEST part by and large
The reason the West dominates the world and has dominated the world throughout history - COURAGE, THE  NEED TO KNOW AND EXPLORE, COMPETITION, GREED FOR SURE, CAPITALISM, APPRECIATION FOR THE MIND, WORK ETHIC, RESPONSIBILITY, FORESIGHT AND PLANNING ETC...
Whitey has definitely EARNED the right to be proud
