WASHINGTON (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton is ready to propose a new federal plan that would offer high-quality preschool to every 4-year-old in America.

The Democratic presidential candidate says the universal Pre-K plan would cost about ten billion dollars. Speaking on NBC's "Today Show," she said evidence shows such preschool programs save money in the long run -- and that students have fewer behavioral problems and stay in school longer.

The New York senator says she'd pay for universal preschool by closing tax loopholes and eliminating Bush administration programs she disagrees with. The proposal would give federal funds to states that establish a plan for making voluntary pre-kindergarten services available for all.

She's presenting the proposal today at a Miami Beach elementary school.


Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton D-N.Y., right, walks into the commencement with Joyce Roche, chairman of the board of trustees at Dillard University in New Orleans Saturday, May 19, 2007.

high-quality preschool

Sounds like an early indoctrination program to me. Sort of the "Hillary Youth" movement.

She's going to send them all to private schools?

Kiss my a$$, cold day in hell I send my kid to your puppy mill... Sure she’ll get some support from this from single moms and 2 income families who want to save the $$ for paying for daycare.....

Sigh, short selling your own kids unfathonable.

I believe it’s ALREADY THERE for anybody who wants and pays for it. Not my responsibility!

high-quality preschool
 
Well, it says right there in the article it's high quality.  Who could disagree with that?  Hopefully it'll be mandatory and far more expensive than originally thought.

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.

"high-quality preschool"

not just regular pre-school, but 'high quality'

Just like the 'high quality' government run regular school system?

and all other 'high quality' government programs

So that more kids can share the socialist ideal of being “bastards raised by a bureau.”

I like Ann C's take? This isn't about indoctrination, but about creating more paying liberal union members.

One of our town's greatest Christian ministries are the many low cost Christian pre schools. This program would destroy the only chance thousands have to receive Christian teaching before they are thrown to the public school leftists.

She’s going to take the toddlers away from their mothers — for the ‘common good’ of course.

But of course! In order to kill off any traditional or cultural sense of family, you have to take the babies away from the parents. Communist Russia and Communist China dictated the definition of “family” to their people, and that is what HClinton wants for the U.S.

I want to see her thesis from Smith College...the original, not the phony one that her Leftie cohorts switched after seeing what the Swiftboats did to John Kerry. I”ll bet my eye teeth that it is a Communist Manifesto that even Stalin would be envious of...

Wonder is she’ll imprison you and take your kids away like the Germans if you try to home school your kids?
Can’t indoctrinate them if they aren’t in public school being brainwashed by good UNION teachers.
