Ken White,
No comments on the remainder since you are merely doing shadow boxing.
Let me explain what I mean by using this part of your post:
The failure of the education system is the universal excuse for not being capable of imbibing the education or not wanting to be educated it being a drag!No, I do not. You're quite wrong. The nominal 50% of the nation's populace that is less well educated than the other 50% are not in that situation due to choice; they are mostly there due to the fact that system failed them. I criticize that system, not the people who suffer due to its failures.
BTW, do not make the mistake of believing that the Sarahs and Joes, that unfortunate 50% less well educated are incompetent boobs. They are not. They may not be as sophisticated as some or as erudite but they aren't stupid. Joe for example was far more correct on the economy than was Obama.
Those who want to be educated find ways and means to do so, inspite of all odds. It is applicable in the US, in India and all over the world. There are many cases in point that indicate this.
Well Sarah Palin and Joe are not incompetent boobs in their fields of expertise. Never said that.
However, it is bewildering, yes bewildering, that you claim that Joe the Plumber "was far more correct on the economy than was Obama.'
If what you say is correct that Joe understand world economy, international politics, geo strategy, geo politics better (or a little less sharper) than Clinton and Panetta, then why do US parents waste time and money by sending children to college, when High School equips them as educated marvels!
You may have a poor opinion about US education, but my folks right from childhood to college have had US education and I daresay they are of same genre as the marvelous example of bubbling intellect of Joe the Plumbers.
I have met many Americans, to include military officers, and I daresay they came out to be a poor example of US education. In fact, they were rather knowledgeable and did display intellectual acumen.
Another of the usual hyperboles that are meaningless and trite, more so when you don't know anything about me.Lemme tell you something, RSM to Brigadier, last time I was politically correct you were probably not yet weaned.
