The FACTS surrounding the decision have been censored from main stream education and revisionist history.

You have captured the sentiment of most or all of the posters here.

From the first day in kindergarten in many or most schools, the child is required to dump the tools their parents carefully selected for them onto a table whereupon the teacher redistributes them "fairly" - to the last day at many higher institutions.

This month, Stanford University students voted on a campus resolution that would have their college require a course on Western civilization, as it did until the 1980s. Stanford students rejected the proposal 1,992 to 347.

A columnist at the Stanford Daily explained why: Teaching Western civilization means "upholding white supremacy, capitalism and colonialism, and all other oppressive systems that flow from Western civilizations."

Real Americans (perhaps it is time to recognize that distinction) would sense the trend needs to be arrested.

But how? It will require more than local pressure simply because of the amount of money that comes from the federal branch. Is a Trump enough to initiate such a move?

This all about the “killing off America” campaign orchestrated by Ovomit and his minions. They already kick kids out of school who wear American flag shirts. Do want to offend the little invaders...but keep taking it away.

Imagine escaping a 3rd world country only to demand the country you’ve invaded isn’t just like the s*ithole you escaped.

Americans...better quit putting up with this BS.

Trump will start with destroying Common Core and abolishing the Federal Education System. He will put the Education System back into the States where the Constitution had put it.
