Billionaire Paul Singer, who is endorsing Republican presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) 80%, is a supporter of the Common Core standards and his foundation has been a donor to the heart of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bushs education empire: the Foundation for Excellence in Education.
Singer, who recently threw his support behind Rubio, founded the Paul E. Singer Foundation, whose work thus far has 'focused on supporting research and scholars in the areas of free market economics, the rule of law, U.S. national security, and the future of Israel, as well as LGBT equality efforts and health-care delivery innovation.'
'The Foundation seeks to leverage its own philanthropic investments by partnering with proven non profits and like-minded donors,' states the Singer Foundation website.
Despite Singers clear support for Common Core, Rubio and his team maintain the Senator is opposed to Common Core. 'Marco has opposed common core for years, and will continue to oppose it as president,' Rubio spokesman Alex Conant told Breitbart News on Tuesday afternoon.
Conant also points back to what Rubio said about Common Core in the GOP debate hosted by the Fox News Channel back in August in Cleveland, Ohio.
In that debate, Rubio bashed Common Core. 'The Department of Education, like every federal agency, will never be satisfied,' Rubio said about the federal education bureaucracy. 'They will not stop with it [Common Core] being a suggestion. They will turn it into a mandate.'
'In fact, what they will begin to say to local communities is, you will not get federal money unless you do things the way we want you to do it,' Rubio continued in the debate. 'And they will use Common Core or any other requirements that exists nationally to force it down the throats of our people in our states.'

Rubio’s penchant for spending money like water in his personal life, makes him vulnerable. He can easily be bought.
The sooner that Common Core becomes Common Corpse, the better off we will be.
Obviously a bunch of dumb asses.
No way in hell I’ll support this dumbass for president. I just won’t vote. I’m done having a RINO candidate shoved down my throat and I’m done being forced to hold my nose and vote for the lesser of two evils. No no no.
Rubio you can run but you can’t hide, the watchword for Rubio is TREASON!
He is well known as a traitor with his reversal on illegal immigration, I voted for this POS I want him to feel the fire.
So another billionaire thinks he’s smarter than the rest of us, collectively.
A hubris hemorrhage.
I've done a lot of nose-holding in my voting life.
I ended up with write-ins. They were enjoyable.
Ditto for the “will not vote for RIBOubio” comments.
I guess that was the only way Glen could be a moderator.
In the Louisiana elections on October 24, Common Core-backed candidates ran very strongly. Two runoffs are scheduled on Nov. 21.
Common Core and Amnesty? Why he’s just a chip off of the old Jeb!
October 24, 2010 while campaigning for the Senate: "Earned path to citizenship is basically code for amnesty. It's what they call it. And the reality of it is this. This has to do with the bottom line that America cannot be the only country in the world that does not enforce its immigration laws. It is unfair to the people that have legally entered this country to create an alternative pathway for individuals who entered illegally and knowingly did so. And all I'm saying is that if you do that...you will never have a legal immigration system that works. No one is going to follow the law if there is an easier way to do it.
June 27, 2013 as an elected Senator: "Those who once had no hope will give their kids the chance at a life they always wanted for themselves. Here in America, generations of unfulfilled dreams will finally come to pass. And that is why I support this reform (Amnesty)--not just because I believe in immigrants but because I believe in America even more."
The blaze.com freezes up my computer and the ads are infuriating. So I don’t go there anymore and it would be a disaster to host a debate.
“Billionaire Paul Singer, who is endorsing Republican presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) 80%, is a supporter of the Common Core”
That’s gonna leave a mark.
Good writing, for a change. The nugget you need is in the lede sentence.
Trump was already having a good time with this at his presser yesterday. Rubio is not the brightest bulb in the box.
