According to The Washington Post, at a recent meeting of the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO), one of the organizations that created the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), Huckabee urged state education officials to get rid of the Common Core name because it has become toxic.
As the Post indicates, however, Huckabee still intends to support the standards.
Rebrand it, refocus it, but dont retreat, Huckabee reportedly told CCSSO members.
As Breitbart News reported in December, Huckabee, who is considered to be a Republican presidential hopeful in 2016, opened one of his shows by telling his audience that people have been posting on his Facebook page that they will never watch his show again because he supports the Common Core standards. Others, he said, have told him they could not trust him because of his support of the standards, and some said he needed to learn the truth about Common Core.
I need to put your own link into context for you? LoL!
You only gave the headline... which was spectacularly squashed by the quote I stuffed in your face. Rarely has a headline been so easily done in by it’s own story.
Thanks for linking me to it, despite the headline spin, I will be using the quote against your gullibility.
