5. I can't argue with a goal of producing more college graduates.
However, in our state, the repuke governor cut funding to state universities by over 30%. Where will these college graduates come from if no one can afford tuition anymore?

And "the quality of a teacher" is not the only factor that can "make or break a child's education." As the child of a single mother who reinforced his early education, President Obama knows that so much more is involved.

This scapegoating of teachers is an organized effort by a small but powerful group hoping to profit from the destruction of public education.
