Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz told a crowd in New Hampshire he would return power over education to the states by eliminating Common Core and abolishing the U.S. Department of Education.
The Union Leader reports:
When a mother stood up and said she can’t help her child with homework because of new styles of teaching math, Cruz promised to get rid of Common Core and abolish the Department of Education.
He said decisions about education should be made at the state, and ultimately, the local level.

Common Core is a federal government indoctrination process. High standards are not an issue – it’s the biased curriculum which runs to subtle and often hidden theme of dependence on the government while encouraging resistance to the child’s parents. The curriculum includes reading assignments in English that are patently pornographic yet does not include historical Masters. It is just a terrible education process that remains in place ONLY because the Federal Government intimidates State Governments with fines, penalties and the withholding of funding. Fear and intimidation practices by the Federal Government; We the People especially our youth are the losers of the tyrannical practices.
Excellent! He’s the first president in the last century to want to return our nation to Constitutional government! This is exactly what we need if we want to get our freedom back.
Common Core is designed to frustrate kids with math. Makes them more compliant with things like the ‘settled science’ of global climate change or the statistics put forth by the Bureau of Labor.
