With our nation having been run from DC totally since at least 1960s, the transition back to state controlled education won’t happen overnight. States have to restructure to do that. That transition would be greatly helped by someone committed to education and Ben Carson fits that description.
That's not what Trump has been saying. End Common Core and shut down the Education department. Nothing about new mandates to restructure the states. All the states will need to do is figure out how to replace the funding that they used to get from the Department of Ed.
