[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's going to run for President, so he's applying for the job he wants and quiet quitting the job he has. He is not focused whatsoever on Virginia state agendas unless they also are national spotlight agendas.

He did run a spectacular gubernatorial campaign compared to McAullife. But once he won that race, his eyes got wider and he is now laser focused on becoming the Republican nominee in 2024. So now he will bend and pivot to whatever will get him that nom. Virginia got screwed by both sides: 1) by the left for shoving down our throat's Terry McAullife as the savior for the democratic nominee when there were other well qualified candidates, and 2) by the moderates who claimed Youngkin was his own brand, was a moderate and would focus on Virginia issues.  McAullife handed Youngkin the election in the debate when he said that parents should not be involved in their children's public school education. Politico did a 15 min podcast re this campaign, that moment and how Youngkin won. It's worth listening to because I am sure he's got the same people working on this next campaign.[/quote]

The sad thing is McAuliffe was 100% correct about parents’ role in public education. There already exist myriad ways to have input — but they absolutely do not get to dictate what happens in the actual classroom or schools.[/quote]

Why can't parents have a larger role in what happens in public school classrooms?  Who gets to decide?

How is it fair that the rich can spend tens of thousands of dollars per year on private school tuition and be treated as a partner with the school on their child's education, but parents who can't afford to be treated like high end consumers are denied substantive input into their child's education?[/quote]

Because parents are stupid.

Seriously I don't want religious nut jobs deciding what my kids read or learn.

How many parents can teach bio, chem, calculus etc ....

This is so dumb honestly people wake the hell up. You want to give them a religious and moral education go to private school but stay the hell out of public schools idiots.[/quote]

Ahhh yes.  The parents, largely products of public education,  are too stupid to have substantive input into their children's public school curriculum.

You and your ilk do not deserve control over our children's education.[/quote]
