(CNSNews.com) - White House Deputy Press Secretary Josh Earnest said at the White House briefing on Tuesday that President Barack Obama believes America needs “to fundamentally rethink and reshape” its higher education system and the he will be going on a bus tour on Thursday and Friday to make some proposals Earnest said “are not going to be popular with everybody.”
After noting that average college tuition costs have risen dramatically in recent decades, Earnest said: “So what the President believes that we need to do is we need to fundamentally rethink and reshape the college--the higher education system, and we need to find a way to build on innovation.
“So the president on this bus tour will lay out some fundamental reforms that would bring real change to the way that we pay for college education in this country,” said Earnest.
“Now, the proposals that the president is going to lay out are not going to be popular with everybody, but they are going to be in the best interest of middle-class families,” he said. “And the president is looking forward to having that discussion over the course of Thursday and Friday in addition riding on a bus.”

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Bullocks.
Hasn’t this Marxist destroyed enough of our nation?
Another bus tour to discuss how he can grab more of my money at the point of a gun and give it to people who don’t deserve it. Another day of violating my God-given rights. Another day of violating the Constitution.
This retinking of higher education, should be great. I wish that Obumbler would decide to focus like a laser on expanding the growth of Kudzu in the South. If he and his administration did not rest until Kudzu was the only thing growing in the South. Kudzu would cease to exist.
Who the hell does he think he is?!
This country is NOT his private “Utopia in a Box” plaything.
It is bought, paid for, and sustained by those who put in the hours, pay the taxes, raise responsible citizens, and in some cases, bleed and die for it. NOT some un-vetted, unqualified, unproven interloper from the far left.
His wanton destruction rolls on, and we refuse to see it.
A single government approved university with many locations would serve us best. /sarc
Silly question, but just WHO the HELL does this guy/gal think he/she IS?
aw gawd, I hope that doesn't mean what I think it means.....
Answering the question, “how could we possibly screw up college any further?”
The dork has never seen real “higher education”.
He couldn’t pass.
And it is obvious that his “colleges” have an admission standards problem.
I wish someone would post the umbrella picture.
He/she looks so perplexed by its usage.
Because his “fundamental transformation” of America has worked so well.
What do you think?
Still looking in The Constitution where the management and access to US colleges falls to the Presidency.......
That all of us, the collective taxpaying we, are gonna be paying for somebody else’s kids to go to college.
