Common Core doesn't work.

It is proven to dumb-down kids.

And that's exactly why the Democrats want it.

We shouldn't have kids who excel, they want everybody to be the same.

I have grandkids who attend school in a large northern city. They play little league baseball in the summer. They don't keep track of hits or runs scored or the score of the games or have records of wins and losses or team standings. Everybody gets a trophy, everybody is the same. There is no impetus to excel. That's how it is when Democrats run things. Why? Because Democrats rarely excel at anything and they hate when other people get recognized for it. So they make sure nobody excels at anything.
