Great to see The Tampa Tribune editorial board - in swing voter Tamper - coming out in favor of Gov. Bush and his biggest education initiative to date during this election year.

"One Florida" may not make everyone happy, but it certainly is a far cry from what FL did before -- and what FL Dem leaders want to return to: a violation of recent court decisions, prohibiting giving one group (out of more than 150 minority groups in FL) the "benefit" of lower standards.

I for one was never happy with the "One Florida" plan as it is still an attempt to color code and otherwise makes race an issue. The focus must always be on merit. You will all recall Ward Connerly's attempt at getting the "California" style civil rights initiative on the state wide ballot. Unfortunately, Connerly had to abandon it when the Fla Supreme Court dragged their feet preventing any decision on the matter until after the election. Consequently, it was withdrawn. The rest, as they say, is history.

summer . . . thanks for PING!

The One Florida Initiative prevents our state from being divided along racial lines, and, does not allow one racial group to be pitted against the other.

Go JEB! It is working . . . much to the dismay of the Dems and liberals.

Moreover, diversity in the university system remained virtually unchanged, with minorities making up more than 36 percent of the entering class.

Does this figure mean all non-whites?
