I suppose Rachel Rich that you are OK with the schools we have now if I read your letter right. I think the current state of public education to be poor at best. If your "public schools for all" idea is implemented all the private schools like the one the Obama girls go will close and they will be dragged off to the wonderful schools in D.C. Any parent can sacrifice and make their child's future better with a decent education. The public schools (most not all) are failing our kids. They learn how to protest and to embrace deviant lifestyles but can not read or think critically. 
I hope the best for all American kids and would like to see some sort of choice for them. I realize the only choice that is acceptable to the teachers union is the one that forces all kids to attend their failing schools.
