Have
you noticed how the conversation goes when GOP candidates talk about
Common Core? No need to spend time gathering candidate's comments
because they don't go far beyond, 'it's a disaster,' 'Common Core will
be gone if I'm elected,' 'we'll send education back to the states.'
Nothing much wrong with that but it leaves out a hell of a lot that
should be said. If you've paid attention, you know there has been little
to talk about the textbooks, the content of those textbooks, or the
part Bill Gates and Microsoft plays in infiltrating our children's
worldview. How are textbook chosen? Who publishes our textbooks?

Read
carefully the bottom three (four, five and six) above.The graphic above
is allegedly a Common Core homework assignment for 3rd grade grammar
produced by Pearson Educators. Never let an opportunity go to waste,
even in grammar class, to tell children we must obey government
officials and that the nation’s needs are more important than an
individuals. Throughout our history, it has been individuals who
achieved and produced. The government produces nothing.
Billions
of dollars are at stake. The 'designers' and 'producers' of Common
Core materials are counting on your child's brain being available to
soak up their propaganda. It's the "fundamental transformation of
America" Barack Obama has boasted of, and acted upon, over and over for
eight years.
Until
the creation of Common Core, businesses have found breaking into the
K-12 market very difficult. States have historically written their own
curriculums and standards, buying suitable materials and textbooks as
they saw fit. Creating content that was accessible to multiple states
was difficult and being able to approach the districts within their tiny
budget window was nearly impossible. The nuanced field of state, local
and federal funding and regulations that companies are forced to
navigate takes years to master and states were the ones controlling the
checkbook.
From
a business point of view, why go to them when you can make them come to
you? Many of the people who financially aided the creation of Common
Core have investments in place in companies that would do quite well
with the standards implementation. By using financial clout and
political connections, billionaires, not teachers, were able to
influence the landscape of our education system...
Given
the growing emphasis on technology in the classroom plus Silicon
Valley’s affinity for gadgets, there are dozens of start-ups trying to
cash in on the new market. Rupert Murdoch’s company Amplify has created
its own tablet and Common Core-aligned games. According to CNBC, the
amount of venture capital invested in education start-ups quadrupled,
from $154 million in 2003 to $630 million in 2012... Read more

How
many parents, how many in GOP leadership understand it's all about the
money and about changing the view of American history? How many Common
Core investors share your values and views of America? How many were
invited to the Obama White House for state dinners or an evening with
Jay-Z and Beyonce, and an after-dinner cognac and chat with the
president to stress the need for social justice in education. Social Justice is the backbone of Common Core.
The train wreck won’t take long — just long enough to derail your
child’s learning. A few years down the road, when parents begin to pay
attention, the moneymen move on to more profitable ventures, and we’ll
remember that we were warned Common Core was never field-tested.
What if a textbook teaches the following about the Bill of Rights:
“The
Government of the United States is currently revisiting The Bill of
Rights. They have determined that it is outdated and may not remain in
its current form any longer.”
Should your child’s years in school be part of paying back the “education debt,” “education equity,” “social justice?” It
is imperative to understand that Common Core is a business venture, and
on the way to the bank, it is likely the Progressive agenda will be
promoted and realized. Only pieces of study materials have been
revealed, so you’ll have to put the slide show together yourself, and
you won’t be able to keep up, because change means cha-ching. Your
school district will be left with the bill.
Common
Core exists because of Bill and Melinda Gates, their extraordinarily
liberal worldview, wealth and the opportunity to get Microsoft learning
products into every school –– the opportunity to write the software that
schools your child.
David
Coleman is behind the "English" studies in Common Core. In his world,
non-fiction reading is rightly a priority. Take a moment to think about
what “non-fiction” your child will read once Common Core cannot be
quashed. You are unlikely to find history as you know it to be true. You
may find everything written by Barack Obama before and after his
presidency, the United Nations plan for globalization and open borders,
the selected works of Mao Tse-Tung, and the memorization of Saul
Alinsky's Rules for Radicals. We don’t know, do we? We can’t
trust, can we? Your local board of education and your Parent-Teacher
organization, is non-existent under Common Core.
Globalization of your child's mind: I have found one source that connects Common Core Initiative Standards (CCIS) to “Connect All Schools,” a... Second,
our Department of Defense (DOD) has partnered with the Connect All
Schools program. Connect All Schools is connected to Vartan Gregorian.
Gregorian is connected to Barack Obama in numerous ways, including as a
member of the White House Fellowship Commission. Gregorian was born in
Tabriz, Iran to Armenian parents. He came to the U.S. in 1956 to study
at Stanford. He became a naturalized American citizen in about 1979. He
graduated Stanford University, is currently the president of Carnegie
Corporation and is a former president of Brown University in Rhode
Island. Pertinent to this article is his seat on the board of The Qatar
Foundation International (QFI). More here - A Wahhabi State Skypes with Your Children.
The
denuding of Common Core takes far more effort than a president
declaring it a disaster, and a state rejecting it. Power to the states,
absolutely, but we can beat back Common Core without parents examining
textbooks, lessons and testing methods.
Trump,
Cruz and Rubio should get busy explaining exactly what Common Core is
and who and what is behind it. If you are close to one of the campaigns,
encourage your candidate to get current on Common Core. We need more
than "I'll send education back to the states"
