[QUOTE="Kansas-Kid, post: 521746, member: 3148"] I've been leaning more towards Cruz/Carson. I think Carson would make an excellent president I just don't know if folks would vote for him. Who knows it's a long election. I know one thing however I will NEVER vote for a Democrat especially this day and age of border line socialism/liberalism. I used to be against common core as well until I looked into it more. Common core does use some weird brain tease type techniques specifically in math and that's what people see on the internet. I am an engineer and I tend to clump things together in my head when solving a problem using similar techniques. They still teach the traditional ways of doing things and students can still do it that way but lets face it America has been behind in especially in math and sciences for over a decade globally. My wife is an Assistant principle on a military installation in a very good school district and the problem is they get kids from all over United States and a lot of these kids supposedly were on grade level at their school but when they came here they were at least a grade or two behind. This is the issue and one that needs to be considered if we want our kids to be some of the best in the world. We need "Common" standards throughout the United States of what a student should know in a particular grade level........think about that. Maybe the answer is another program, statistics say it takes 5-7 years to see a fundamental change. I just believe we need a common set of standards throughout the United States so it is even throughout. [/QUOTE]
