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.

Yep, ya ust can’t start the indoctrination early enough, can ya, Hitlery?
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!

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.
And she wants little ponies for them too.
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
Give me your four year olds, and in a generation I will build a Socialist state. Vladimir Lenin, d. 1924
“Senator [Hillary Rodham Clinton] wants pre-K for all 4-year-olds”
Goodie, I get to pay for that glorified day care too!!!
So that more kids can share the socialist ideal of being “bastards raised by a bureau.”
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.
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...
This is gub’mint’s business, why?
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.
So if we are going to start kids in school earlier...can they flunk out earlier now?
