Linahan, Gutzman - Why Common Core Is Anathema To Federalism, Part 1
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – "What they’re doing is omitting it from the framework that controls the teacher. The teachers are evaluated based on the scores of the exams or the assessment.

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – "Wouldn’t it be a sign of a regenerating spirit of republicanism and of the primary things that kids ought to be learning as opposed to the compulsory things that we force them to learn -- this magazine, my point, is pitched to young people.

Government Acts Like The Mob
The Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – "In the first hour I brought up that the latest tyranny from the executive, that’s President Obama, claiming he has the authority to raise the automobile mile-per-gallon standards.

Mendenhall Essay Pt. II - The American Union Killed America
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – "Three months ago I contacted Pete Haworth, who runs NomocracyInPolitics.com. I had previously contacted the editors of two other conservative major publications, I think they’re major publications, and both turned me down.

I think that’s because no one wants to touch this nuclear bomb called secess….Continue

With Great Freedom Comes Great Responsibility
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - What many schools do is teach for tests, higher tests scores ensures more funding from the Federal Leviathan. And why are they doing this? Because the teaching is being nationalized, it is becoming controlled by the national government, and the kids are being turned into nothing more than data collectors for the Feds. But the most important things that we learn in school can't be measured in a spreadshe….Continue

The Education System Should Not Be Compulsory Or Public
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Number two, when we talk about the public school system, people perceive it and treat it as though the funding for it is a foregone conclusion and that it has always been that way. It hasn’t always been that way. Whether you have children in the school systems or not, you’re still required to fund it. The parents that have their children, even if both of them work, they certainly are paying. They’re funding them whether the….Continue
Eric Holder Needs To Butt Out of Louisiana’s School Voucher Revolution
Mandeville, LA - Church Doctrine - When Styx’s Tommy Shaw sang “too much time on my hands” he claimed to be a “jet fuel genius who can solve the world’s problems without even trying”.

The Tug of War on Boys in Public Schools
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Time Magazine has an article about how school has become too hostile for boys. A young boy was suspended for chewing the sides off of a Pop-Tart into the shape of a gun and "shooting" it at someone.

Education Isn't Just For Students, Teachers Can Learn New Things Too
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - In most states, continuing education is required by law for many professions... Doctors for example need to be educated about the latest drugs. So why aren't our educators required to do this? And we're not saying that this should be administered by the state, not at all. But shouldn't the people educating our youth be up to date on the latest technologies, teaching methods, etc.? And what has happened to teaching the classics in sc….Continue

The Erosion of Education as a Result of Federal Intervention
NEW ORLEANS, La. - In an attempt to look hip and salvage his ever-plunging approval rating, President Obama held his Twitter Townhall on Wednesday. Per usual, the solutions offered all rely on further interference by the federal leviathan. Despite a dismal record of accomplishment in every sphere the government has inserted itself, i.e. education, charity, retirement et al, President Obama did his best to convince the American people that THIS federal intervention will be diff….Continue
We Have To Educate Ourselves As Did The Founders If We Want A New Generation Of Founding Fathers
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I think reading some of the great works of the latter part of the 18th century and early part of the 19th century, I think that’s a good place to start. One of the things that I’m learning as I continue to learn and study about this stuff, one of the things I learned is: Who did Madison read? Who was Jefferson reading? Jefferson carried some books around with him in a little leather satchel. I know what two of them were. Hav….Continue
Student Loans Belong In The Market, Not The Government
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Once something becomes law, even if the Republican Party opposed it, they will ultimately find a way to make it their own, and it will then become a part of conservatism. Sure enough, student loans have now become part of a conservative policy in the House of Representin’, I guess. Members of the GOP are demanding that action be taken immediately to spare those students out there the unbelievable horror and fate of their interest….Continue
Public Education Is Designed To Create Workers, Not Thinkers
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – We have education systems today and we all agree the education is not to make better Christian young men and women of great virtue and great promise and great potential.

Americans Lack Imagination For Things Like iPad Schools And Secession
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I just think people should explore the possibilities, should not be wed to this jingoistic nationalism that we all must be wed to, and ought to think about what’s best for us and our children in your region, where it is you live, where it is that your community is. If it’s not membership in this union that spies on you and taxes you and harasses you and undermines your moral and cultural traditions, then leave it. What exactly ….Continue
