| 43. He Wants To Scrap It Because It Is Unfunded? |
|
"What we need is the kind of approach that we took in Vermont. We don't have those kinds of unfunded mandates. We have accountability testing. We have a testing system that's so hard that not one school in the state meets the standards."
So, Dean wants to leave behind NCLB because it is unfunded, just like he wouldn't support Dodd-Miller if it were unfunded? It doesn't seem like he has much problem with strenuous testing. It seems more like he supports a mandate based on the funding. This doesn't make sense, so I am willing to see more before passing any judgement.
