I noticed this one from a few days ago. The full text is available of course at the link, but here's a few highlights I got from a scan of the verbiage:
Section 2a: There is hereby established the White House Initiative on Educational Excellence for African Americans (The Initiative), to be housed in the Department of Education (The Department). There shall be an Executive Director of the Initiative, to be appointed by the Secretary of Education (The Secretary). The Initiative shall be supported by the Interagency Working Group established under subsection (c) of this section and advised by the Commission established under section 3 of this order.
So now we have a new Black Education Czar, supposedly under the auspices of the Dept. of Education. BUT, as we see buried in Section 2b(4)(iv), we learn that the new Czar will:
work closely with the Executive Office of the President on key Administration priorities related to the education of African Americans;
So the Czar will have access to the Preezy outside the Department's channels.
Moving on, we see Section 2c:
(1) There is established the Federal Interagency Working Group on Educational Excellence for African Americans (Working Group), which shall be convened and chaired by the Initiative's Executive Director and that shall support the efforts of the Initiative described in subsection (b) of this section.
(2) The Working Group shall consist of senior officials from the Department, the White House Domestic Policy Council, the Department of Justice, the Department of Labor, the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Science Foundation, the Department of Defense, and such additional agencies and offices as the President may subsequently designate. Senior officials shall be designated by the heads of their respective agencies and offices.
Lots of tentacles there, aren't there? The Black Education Czar will have access to at least five Cabinet-level offices, just to start off. Lots of revenue sources from which to siphon.
Like the late-night infomercials say, BUT THAT'S NOT ALL, LOOK AT WHAT ELSE YOU GET! Section 3 of the EO does this:
(a) Establishment. There is established in the Department the President's Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for African Americans (Commission).
(b) Commission Mission and Scope. The Commission shall advise the President and the Secretary on matters pertaining to the educational attainment of the African American community, including:
(3) efforts to engage the philanthropic, business, nonprofit, and education communities in a national dialogue on the mission and objectives of this order; and
(4) the establishment of partnerships with public, private, philanthropic, and nonprofit stakeholders to meet the mission and policy objectives of this order.
Okay, now we see that the new Czar will "engage" and otherwise "establish partnerships" with private business and nonprofits to meet their "policy objectives". That means basically, shaking them down for revenue, and the usual threats/intimidation by the race hustlers to "willingly" promote the agenda or face reprisals.
In Section 3c, we see that the Czar will be the head of this commission, that the Preezy will appoint all its members, and they may be drawn by him personally from
"a variety of sectors, including the education sector, labor organizations, research institutions, the military, corporate and financial institutions, public and private philanthropic organizations, and nonprofit and community-based organizations at the national, State, regional, or local levels."
So, we can see what the new Black Czar will be doing. The czar will not only be involved in just social engineering, but wealth transfer from other departments, appropriations that don't get voted on by Congress, and Federal jobs access for labor unions and ACORN activists who otherwise would be locked out of the system.
So don’t fund the damned thing... We own the House, no money, no new “black initiative”. Let him write all the EO’s he wants, maybe he can put it on his Own VISA card! Just don’t ask me to pay for this “black only” initiative... I’m getting tired of this!!!!! I wasn’t a racist 3 years ago, but I’m getting there.
It is the idiot Republicans that go along with this black bigotry....Romney will be almost as bad as Obama on Affirmative Action policies.
Love the sign... ;>)
Exactly.
This has all been part of the plan for quite a while, but now Obama has to take charge and make it look like he is really doing something to make it happen.
Two years ago, Obama gave a graduation speech, in which he said that we have been throwing money at education for years and still the White students out perform the Black and Hispanic students on tests. So, he said that he was going to do something different - CHANGE things in education.
Now, flash back to Arnie Duncan and his William Ayres plan for education, making 11th and 12th grades optional and starting public school at 3 or 4 years old. Kids would still get 12 years of education, but it would start earlier and end earlier. The idea was to put the low performing, “at risk” students directly into union apprenticeships and job training programs, without finishing high school or having to take a test. (Obama doesn’t like tests, not union promotion, either)
This is where the partnership with unions, private companies (mostly in the area of health care), and the military, come in. No testing, just training, and the former “at risk” gang members are instantly transformed into working members of society, with full government benefits.
The two year apprenticeships will put the little gang bangers ahead of the students who choose to complete 12th grade and possibly a community college degree in criminology. (police and other first responder positions are high on the list of possibilities for the drop outs) . Then when they make seniority the only requirement for promotion, the White guys will give up and look for another job.
I wonder if this means he is re-introducing form of school segregation but “for the benefit of A-A students?”
This is only enslaving blacks.
Teddy Roosevelt had a saying about hypenated Americans...
Please remove my previous post. That was really in bad taste.
Local socialist control soon becomes county socialist control which turns into state socialist control that morphs into federal socialist control and eventually national fascist collectivism.
With government schooling ( a socialist-entitlement) it only took 150 years to get to the level of federal socialist control. The next stop on the train is......?
Ain't you never heard of de "Whuppin' Boy?" That be the slave who took the beatin's fo' li'l white Massa. Seein' as how dey was frens, de li'l white Massa supposed to feel bad.
Don’t EO’s expire once the POS is discared in NOV?
The Hispanic high school dropout rate is high too, does this cover them as well ?
Specifically the EO states blacks, native Americans, and the aboriginal Inuit tribes. The latter two only as an aside, presumably as a source for siphoning off revenue for the blacks.
Nope, they don’t. There are EO’s still on the books from the 1880’s.
