Three issues with Common Core.

1. It is a ruse by its creators to get the federal government further entrenched in education. I don’t have a problem with a voluntary set of standards that set a high bar for excellence. But this will get the Feds involved.

2. Education is completely hijacked by liberals. Liberals have DESTROYED education since the early 70s. Failed liberal idea after failed liberal idea have gutted the US education system. This is simply another liberal idea that will fail.

3. Common Core’s recommended and approved material is completely rewriting American and World history into the mold of the liberal world view.

I agree. Common Core stinks, is not good education, provides a slippery slope to total government indoctrination via the schools. It muddies rather than clarifies basic concepts.

Leave school curricula to local school boards. This will preserve American diversity in problem-solving techniques. If everyone learns the same thing taught in the mandated same way, "one ring will rule them all". We will lose the diverse ways of attacking problems which is an American hallmark.
