Ron Paul and Homeschoolers

From Ron Paul's web site.

I think he is the most homeschooling friendly of all the candidates.

Your Child, not Washington’s

The federal government does not own our children. We cannot allow Washington lobbyists and bureaucrats to decide when, how, and what our children will learn.

Your Tax Dollars Returned to You

I will advance tax credits through the Family Education Freedom Act, which reduces costs and makes it easier for parents to home school.

Your Child’s Education Back in Your Control

My commitment to ensuring home schooling remains a practical alternative for American families is unmatched by any other presidential candidate. Returning control of education to parents is the centerpiece of my education agenda.

"Parental control of child rearing, especially educa-tion, is one of the bulwarks of liberty. No nation can remain free when the state has greater influence over the knowledge and values transmitted to chil-dren than the family."

“The people of the United States can no longer afford to be ruled by political opportunists. We need men of char-acter and principle in public office. There is no better man in America for the office of president than Ron Paul.” - Dr. Arthur Robinson, creator of the Robinson Self-Teaching Curriculum

Authored Family Education Freedom Act, allowing parents a tax credit of up to $5,000 per student per year to offset costs of education. Will guarantee parity for home school diplomas and advancement of equal scholarship consideration for home schooled high school graduates. Will prevent the Department of Educa-tion from regulating home school activities. Will veto any legislation that creates national standards or national testing for home school parents or students.

Congressman Ron Paul is serving his 10th term in the U.S. House. As an OB/GYN, Dr. Paul has assisted women in delivering over 4,000 babies. He served his country as a Flight Surgeon in the Air Force and the Air National Guard. Con-gressman Paul never votes for any legis-lation unless it is expressly authorized by the Constitution.

"...Dr. Paul is the homeschoolers’ best friend."

- Ginny Baker, author of Teaching Your Children at Home and national home school pioneer
“Decade after dec-ade, Congressman Paul has stood - sometimes alone - for liberty, limited government, and the rule of law.” - Isabel Lyman, author of The Homeschooling Revolution

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Wikileaks and police state censorship

I saw an article today on SF Gate about some nit wit Bush appointed Federal Judge ordering a website I'd never heard of called Wikileaks shut down because they were publishing some bank documents from some corrupt Swiss bank. The amusing thing is that they can't actually do it! Even more amusing is that this just draws attention to the site and makes it that much more visible, yay idiot goons! :-) There are mirror sites all over the world and it's almost impossible for thuggish police state goons to figure out how to close off all of the leaks :-) One mirror site is here: http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks The US site they tried to close down is still here: http://88.80.13.160 "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe,

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think.  :-)  I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all.  Posted via email from The Angry Gnome
