Education in America

I believe that education is a major issue in this up coming election. Both candidates have good views on how the educational field should look. But there is only one person I could pick for this assignment. And I picked Barack Obama.



These are the reasons why I support Barack Obama.
  • He wants more money to help schools meet up with testing standards
  • He want to more pay for teachers who mentor and work well in the classroom
  • He supports charter schools, but not vouchers
  • He wants a tuition tax credit for all college students
  • He wants to allow race-based affirmative action for colleges

These are the reasons why I don't support John McCain.

  • He wants parents to move kids out of failing schools instead of fixing them
  • He want teachers to have different pay rates- More for good and Less for bad
  • He supports charter schools and vouchers
  • He wants to target federal financial aid to needy students
  • He opposes race-based affirmative action for colleges
I believe with Barack Obama as the next president education will be more of a success rather than more of a problem.
