knowledge is power

Mr and Mrs Obama became leaders of the free world (and an example to the whole world) through education. (pointed out by the new sec of ed, arne duncan). They did not come from a wealthy or privileged family (bush bought his way into school). They studied! In Marion County Florida they plan to lay off 500 teachers. A catastrophy in the making(unless they were substandard). It is every students world duty to at least finish High School. To drop out of High School is an insult to the world ( remember, red gold and green) and a cowardly act.
