Life is?? # 136 Common core is a takeover?
** The big change started with the Creation of the US Dept of ED in the 1960's {Thank you LBJ} - this single source of educational control! - Obama's 2009 RTTT/Common Core program announcement clearly reads like a blueprint for the federal takeover of education away from the states while digitally tracking every kid in our country from kindergarten to college. **

AZ's chief Common Core pusher hosts exclusive private fundraiser for Carly Fiorina in Phoenix.
Craig Barrett, AZ's chief Common Core pusher and Chairman of the Board at Achieve Inc. (architects of the Common Core standards), hosted a private fundraiser for Carly Fiorina in AZ on 9/10/15 according to the Maricopa County Republican Committee (MCRC) Briefs.
Craig Barrett, Arizona's poorer version of Bill Gates, routinely supports candidates for Governor and Superintendent of Education who then go on to advocate for his position of supporting Common Core learning standards and the suctioning of our kids' data to all of his buddies at the Chamber of Commerce.
Craig Barrett would NOT support anyone who is truly against #CommonCore in their actions.
During her run for US Senate in CA Carly Fiorina put out a position paper praising and supporting Obama's Race To The Top (RTTT) program which tied federal funding to the adoption of what would later be called Common Core which includes federally driven learning standards, tests, teacher evaluations, and NSA-like data suctioning systems which are all in place now.
Many RINO candidates across the country wishing to gain the conservative vote profess to be against Common Core during their campaign only to do nothing of substance to rid our country of it once in office. Many use the tactic of saying that Common Core was a good idea but its implementation has been a disaster or that its original good intentions were "hijacked" by special interests.
Is Carly following this model?
The Fiorina "presidential" campaign is now saying that no one in the country, including her, knew what the Common Core had in mind when she supported it back in 2010.
{Why would she have supported something which she did not know or fully understand?}
In a major attempt at CYA her campaign now says,
"At the time that Race to the Top was proposed in 2009 and when Carly supported it in 2010, it was a funding program based on real performance metrics and opposed by the teachers’ unions.
But like so many other government programs with worthy goals backed by flowery speeches, it hasn’t turned out to be what we were promised.
[Promises are easy - results are far more difficult - this should be taken into consideration in any major political consideration!}
Instead, Race to the Top is just the latest example of the federal bureaucracy caving to the powerful interests..."
I'm calling BS, Carly.
I'm posting a link to the original announcement in 2009 for your consideration in the comments section-it came out a year before Fiornina's CA Senate campaign position paper on education.
Obama's 2009 RTTT/Common Core program announcement clearly reads like a blueprint for the federal takeover of education away from the states while digitally tracking every kid in our country from kindergarten to college. It is very clear that the feds would be holding federal money hostage until states adopted Common Core's federally driven and created education reforms and "changed laws" to make its adoption possible. Read it and come to your own conclusions.
In fact Obama's intentions were very clear to then Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska, Governor Perry of Texas, as well as the conservative governors of Virginia and Nebraska who subsequently refused the federal dollars and the RTTT program because the agreement to adopt all the facets of Common Core took away state sovereignty over education.
I think many people would be sympathetic to a candidate who is evolving on Common Core as they understand it better. Bobby Jindal tried this. But let's not insult America's anti-Common Core warriors' intelligence by pleading ignorance and rewriting Common Core's history. Fess up and move on.
According to Carly for America News, Fiorina also brought on former AZ gubernatorial candidate, and former Mayor of Mesa, Common Core loving Scott Smith to her campaign as our state's co-chair.
Scott Smith had the dubious distinction of being the only GOP candidate in the last election cycle to openly support Common Core. Even though he had the support of former Gov Jan Brewer who installed Common Core in AZ, Scott Smith's campaign crashed and burned.
When a donor makes a contribution to a campaign, much less holds a private fundraiser at their house, they own stock in their '"investment".
Does Common Core own Carly?
