Race, Age and Gender

Last night I watched CNN and caught some very interesting shows including one about Race, Age and Gender in the election which was right up my alley. With different panelists for different segments of the show it was quite informative and controversial. One panelist tried to convey she believed "gender was the new race" WHAT? no, no, no race is race and gender is gender and so can you be a racist and not a sexist? hmmmm I am thinking NO...anyways it seems like McCain has managed to pull a real fast one. It really seems like all they are talking about is this Naughty-Monkey- shoe-wearing-gun-slinging-bible-thumping-hot-chick! What happened to NoChildLeftBehind, violence in our schools and cities, healthcare...where oh where have the issues gone...where oh where could they be??? I watched Obama interviewed by that Fox (clear my throat) gentleman and all they talked about is the importance to keep the shield up in Poland and how many points he would spot him in a 1-on-1 bball game...are you kidding me Barack? Just read about how neither camp has touched on the taboo branded NCLB because of how poorly it has been implemented and tracked and frankly how crappy our kids still are performing. After listening to NPR earlier and listening to a man in Harlem who is leading a movement in inner city schools it is astounding what he lists as requirements for these schools...and they should get them. But it is sad to think what will happen to our education system if McCain comes into office...
