People need to realize that we DO NOT have a health care problem! It is the health insureres that are out of control. Their lobbyists control the congress and senate. Once we dunp the lobbyist and our elected officals stop taking "gifts" all this nonsense will stop.

WE need to take these insurance companies in hand! They are the root of the problem!!!!

If Obama was a white guy there would not be all this hoopla! Remember on 9/11 when the idiot Bush was in a classroom in Tampa and the kid was reading him the book because Bush cannot read beyond a 4th grade level???
At least Obama wants to see the graduation rate rise and stop all this welfare!

Hey, I wonder of Sonia Sotomayer wanted to give the students a speech if this would happen???

Frankly, I am in California and trying to get out to Nevada! I originally came here from Florida first MISTAKE! The high taxes, illegals that sucked the budget bone dry and yet demand rights. The "me and I am entitled attitude" is horrid and everyone want to be a star!
My experiences in Nevada have been nothing but pleasant in all my 100+ trips. People are friendly, polite, caring and will lend a hand even if asked for directions.

Yes, every area has crime but here in the LA area just turn on your TV and all you read about is shooting after shooting. Just shooting everything up like Little Texas!

Doing price comparisons even in the supermarket Nevada is so much cheaper. I just hope that the great state of Nevada stays that way!

NCLB has to go. It has created a climate where teachers have to teach to a test! I am not saying that a measurment it not needed but NCLB abuses it.

Look at New York State where they have had regents for the past 150 years.(I am a proudct of the NYC schools and tuaght there for many years!) They are so successful (not every system is foolproof and I am sure that there are flaws)that New York State has ranked #1 for well over 50 years. They must be doing something right!

Parents need to take an interest in tneir child's education and not think that the school districts are highly paid babysitting services.

We also have to give students more real life skills instead of all this useless book knowledge that they are never going to use. Bring back BUsiness/Vocational Education so kids can function in the real world. EVeryone has to work and should be taught good work habits and ethics!

Not everyone is going to college and will make bucks. Remember the guy who fixes your car is good for 60+ per year, the air conditioning contractor you call to your homesgets $85.00 just to say I am here, then the charges begin!

Get real folks not everyone is going to be a doctor or lawyer. NCLB has to go!
