What does the NAACP have against school vouchers?
Amazing isn't it? Their constituency wants them- but then again, well-educated people are likely to see through them...
It removes the masses from underneath the intellectual and sociologocal thumb that the NAACP has placed them under.
In addition, a vast majority of the rank and file of the NAACP are educators in the public school systems of the nation. Vouchers would force them to truly compete for jobs, and in many cases, potentially lose those jobs to better educators and educational institutions.
If the problems of the public schools actually get solved -- and vouchers would go a long way towards doing that -- the NAACP will lose a lot of its momentum. They rely on a) stupid constituents, b) the NAACP holds itself up as an organization which is "fighting the decay" of public schools, preventing the evil Republicans from canceling school lunches or stopping Johnny from reading, blah blah blah. Plus, of course, they get a lot of support from teacher's unions, and the last thing teacher's unions want is for their guaranteed jobs to start to have to face real competition.
Etc.
It's the usual "poverty pimp" thing - as long as people are suffering, the people who claim to protect the "underclass" will always have a job, even if they never actually make things better. In fact, if they ever *did* fix the problems, they'd be out of a job... Perpetuating the problem becomes their mission, in order to maintain the endless parade of people looking to them as potential saviors.
Part of a reciprocal back scratching agreement with the NEA.
They dont want the children of the "massess" to attend the same private schools that they send THEIR kids to. Also most of the teachers unions are NAACP memebers too.
It creates legions of educated blacks that leave the democrat plantation once they realize the self-proclaimed black leadership are frauds.
