No, education should be handled at the state and local level instead of the national level

The government needs to ensure that our children have the basic right of education in our country. We are less educated than almost half the countries in the world and it needs to change. Our children need basic reading and math skills! Not CRT!

The constitution lays out the role of every level and branch of government. The federal government has no say in education.

That's a valid point. The constitution does provide guidelines about the roles of different levels of government. However, it's also important to consider that the world is much different now than it was when the constitution was written. Education has become a national issue, not just a local one. What are your thoughts on balancing constitutional guidelines with the changing needs of society?

“Throw out everything you thought you knew about this election.”

By Chuck Todd, NBC News:We are getting awfully close to the moment when it might be fair to say, “Throw out everything you thought you knew about this election.”We are now going from a presidential campaign that left the public disinterested and at times disgusted it to a campaign that I could see generating an electorate that might be as interested, if not more so, as in 2008 and 2020, two of the highest-turnout elections in the last 50 years.If the Democrats do end up with a new nominee — and it’s looking more likely by the hour that they will — that, too, is likely to suddenly trigger interest in what the new nominee has to say, which in turn could engage the electorate in a way that the pre-debate version of this campaign just didn’t.But before we get to this campaign reset, the Democrats have to figure out what their ticket looks like and, more important, how quickly they can get their ticket selected and certified by the party.As of this writing, my sources indicate to me that about the only folks who are still trying to rationalize Biden’s staying in this race all share the last name of Biden, with the possible exception of Biden’s longtime chief political strategist, Mike Donilon — who, as the gatekeeper of the data that makes it to the president's desk, is starting to get blame along with Biden and his family for Democrats’ being in this position.
