John Kerry and John Edwards will:
Engage 200,000 Americans A Year In "Service For College" John Kerry and John Edwards will offer a simple deal to hundreds of thousands of America's young people: if you will serve for two years in one of America's toughest and most important jobs, we will cover four years of tuition at a typical public university.
Engage 300,000 College Students A Year In Helping Our Children Learn John Kerry and John Edwards will call on America's college students to join a national crusade to help America's children succeed in school and get to college. In return for their service, our young people will receive up to $2,000 per year to pay for college.
Pay For College And Service By Letting The Market Set Rates For Loans Today's student loan program effectively guarantees billions in profits to banks at the expense of American taxpayers. John Kerry and John Edwards will introduce market forces to overhaul guaranteed student loans, saving taxpayers billions without charging students a penny more. Their plan will reward lenders with low costs and high-quality service - not political clout.
Engage Seniors In Service To Build A Stronger America To help strengthen future generations of Americans, we need our seniors' help. John Kerry and John Edwards support existing programs that offer avenues for senior volunteer service and they will support innovative new models that create even more opportunities for seniors to serve their communities. When seniors spend time tutoring they free up over-strained teachers to teach, and children get extra help learning. And older Americans can help other seniors in ways no other Americans can.

W use this againist him ...... big ...... wake up . use it
Those youn americans he's talking about are High Schoolers. This Nat'l Plan has been revised over time to take out some of the key details. That's one of them...
On top of that, AWC&GC Kerry says he's going to increase Special Forces.... and NO ONE in MSM jumped on him about this (or the previous point). For Special Forces, not only do you need more people, but they have to be guys of a special caliber -- very rare indeed.
Where does Kerry intend to find all these new military personnel that he's been promising?????
And how do they plan on pulling this off?
If it talks like a communist....Please God, for the sake of my children, let W prevail.
Gosh, Mr. Effin' Kerry....when us homeschoolers tutor and teach we're told we are UNQUALIFIED and UNFIT.
I guess the allmighty TEACHING CREDENTIAL doesn't matter when you have a PLAN, does it Effin'?
I'm not sure I want to know what they mean by "engage". All I see missing here is collective farming. Good grief, this aging hippie who's never grown up, will start talking about communes next (for us little people of course).
I remember seeing an article with the High school kids provision in it also. The whole thing is amazing but when I read the part about high school age kids being required to do their "duty", really loud warning bells started going off in my head.
Guys, this read more like a manifesto for introducing some God-awful "ism" (I'm not sure which ism) into American society through promises of the "free" everything, health care, college, --- TOTALLY FRIGHTENING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I prefer marxist myself, but commie works, for some people. You see, we've been told for years now that communism is dead...you and I know that is not true, however, the sheeple believe that it is. They don't even know what a "progressive" is, let alone a communist...they are the same:MARXISTS. jean kerrey is a marxist and leads the other marxists in this republic who want the downfall of all we hold dear.
Make no mistake. The freedom of all people here and ultimately everywhere, hangs in the balance with this election. The marxists here will do anything and everything to "win" this one. BITS will come to fruition.
I have updated my FMCDH (From My Cold Dead Hands) sign-off with the addition of (BITS).....Blood In The Streets, which I foresee coming soon, due to the enormous increase of the Marxist progressive movement being shoved down the throat of this failing REPUBLIC through the Judicial tyranny of fiat law, the passing of unconstitutional laws by the Legislative and Executive branches of our government and the enormous tax burden placed upon the average American to support unconstitutional programs put forth by Marxist ideology.
FMCDH(BITS)
can they define "a typical public university " ?
Hey sKerry, why didn't you expose how much this Nazi foolishness is gonna cost?
THIS IS ALSO A BACK DOOR TAX HIKE! It will require INCREASED state spending to build more college facilities and hire more profs! It is probably going to need a NEW gov't agency to coordinate it too.
Start emailing it out to all the parents and young people you know. This is modern day slavery.
