Obama Backs School Choice 8-17-11 Commentary


During a recent Twitter town hall chat, President Obama admitted he personally benefited from school choice when he was an elementary student. The president explained that if it were not for the scholarship he received to attend a prestigious private school in Hawaii when he was ten years old, he would not be president today.
Lindsey Burke, education analyst at The Heritage Foundation, says she was astonished by the remark. "It was very interesting, but certainly surprising to hear him acknowledge the life-changing outcomes that school choice has had for him," she explains. We need school choice for all children, poor kids should get the same chances that Obama got to make his life better don’t you think.
What do you think.
Until Next Time
