but I do worry about America’s youth competing in the international world of science and technology when they’ve been taught to believe ridiculousness that says dinosaurs and humans lived together.

That's just such a ridiculous statement I don't even know where to start.

Are you correlating the decline of American education with the teaching of creationism?

If he won't, I will.

IF you will allow me to add:

the decline of American education with the teaching of creationism to the exclusion of scientific observation

I am wondering how these kids will be able to compete with the Asians in the coming century when they're being taught pseudoscience skewed to match bronze age myths about the origins of the universe.

I wouldn't call it a factor currently, because a 6,000 year old Earth is not taken seriously by the scientific community. But it certainly would not be a step in the right direction.
