Washington DC is already one of the highest-spending school districts in the country, and the results are abysmal.

Obama is not for Reparations, but he points out the dreadful conditions of the buildings of some public schools in poorer districts. Oddly, Kucinich is for reparations.

As long as the natives are running the inner-city schools, the facilities will be awful. But that's not why the kids aren't getting educated.

Because even if you had the best facilities in the world, what good would it do when 90% of inner-city black kids are illegitimate and are surrounded by crime and other social pathologies in their neighborhoods and homes?

The education schools "deciders" have plagued us for decades, but what's your "why" for the failure of public education?

As I posted in Post #4:

I'm not condemning public education. I'm just saying no education is going to work in general if the kids' home environment and neighborhoods are awful.
