To: RED SOUTH

This, too, is naive. Texas has Mexicans in its school system that drag us down. It’s tough competing with Connecticut when the whole south of our state doesn’t speak English in our English-only school system. Try comparing apples to apples. North and West Texas beats Connecticut in test scores. Pretty impressive, actually. Or compare the whole state of Texas to California, who also has a huge influx of Mexicans in the school system, but spends FAR more per student on education that we do. We beat them, easily. Apples and Oranges = misleading, at best.
