It’s not important to Hussein’s puppeteers that he knows what is actually going on.

In fact, they probably prefer that he remain clueless — and just sticks to following their scripts.

Sample Common Core math problem. Confusing, unnecesary steps and utterly stupid. I'm convinced it's designed to make math morons out of American children.

The ruling class always exempts themselves.

I have a Master’s Degree in Business with a Bachelor’s in English, had straight A’s all through high school and college. I also read this mother’s entire letter. She is being way too kind to BO IMO. With all my years of education plus 40 plus years of actual experience there is no way I could answer any of these questions.

I also showed the article to my son and DIL, both have Master’s degrees and are teachers in the private school system. Both just scratched their heads and expressed concern about what and how the students are being taught as part of Common Core.

I am appalled at the questions and not sure if the students answered them correctly - whatever that means - what ability this would exhibit.

My grandson is also a seventh grade student but does attend a private church based school. Questions on the exam he recently completed bore no resemblance to those on this exam.

If this material is an example of what our kids are learning in today’s schools, they couldn’t get a job even if one were available.

There are but two ways to end common core.

1. End the Federal Department of Education and prohibit the federal govt from being involved in any way in education.

2. Secede.

That’s it folks, if you think there is another way, well good like proving it and getting it done.

I was a “C” student in math, and I find myself—quite often showing up young people in multiplying/adding in my head. Except for my daughter’s boyfriend, he’s a math genius-—and he wants to waste his smarts on psychology!! Ugh! So, he’s not THAT smart.
