Kids are resisting.

The feds have set 95% participation as the threshold.

Easy to defeat.

95% of children are required to take Common Core testing.

Hm?....The approximate percentage of homeschoolers is already estimated to be 4% ( likely twice that) and growing rapidly.

Arne Duncan is a pal of Obama’s from his days in Chicago when Arne wa Supt of Schools. Obozo met him at a pick up basketball game, which was something Obozo use to do to meet new men. Both of these scumbags are opportunists and each has an agenda, and both of them must fail.

May God bless Ted Cruz and his family. This man gives me hope for this country...I'm definitely on “Cruz Control.”

Arnie Duncan joins the ever growing gallery of race jockeys Obama has in his closet, including Lynch, Holder, Sharpton,Rice , with many others to come.

You doan use Common Core, you racis.

You doan like selective prosecution...you racis!

You doan agree with fact that Benghazi was caused by an anti Islam
video....you racis!

You doan like IRS denials of charitable status to conservative and Jewish organizations.....you racis!

( I kinda like being called “racis!”)

Arnie can go shabazz himself and so can the Obama horse he rode in on.
