Kerry is wrong about NCLB

[Cheswick2.0]

I was watching his address to Rainbow Push this morning. It was a recast I guess. Anyway he brought up the subject of the NCLB legislation that he and Edwards amoung others voted for. He said basically that the problem with it is that is not funded and he is going to fund it.
But he is wrong! The problem with it is that it is lousy legislation. I won't go into a detailed explanation of why. You can find 1000 threads on DU where other teachers have given every single argument about what is wrong with it. It simply needs to be ditched altogether and states or individual districts can come up with their own reasonable standards.
One of the things I like least about Kerry is his turn to the right and this is just another example.
Please, if you go to his blog or you work for his campaign let him know that his position on this is wrong. He will win the votes of many school teachers and administrators and school board members who might otherwise vote repug, if he would just adopt the position of Howard Dean on NCLB. I live in a very conservative area and everybody on both sides of the isle hates this POS legislation. We see what it is doing to our schools. It is a disaster.
