"I don't believe that any leader desires to bring his country into war, but it is a necessary evil in order to keep the peace and keep America, the country in which you so freely enjoy endless rights and benefits, as the greatest nation in the history of God's great earth."

--Whoa. The "greatest nation"? What information are you using to justify that? Like someone said, I love America, but we're not perfect, and hardly "the greatest nation".

I'm from Florida. To receive Bright Futures money, one must have a SAT score of at least 1200. Deny it if you want, but Blacks and Hispanics have lower scores for whatever reasons--economic, academic--whatever. Sometimes the best students don't score well. Should they be denied state money because of the proven score discrepancies? The original state system (which WASN'T broken, by the way) attempted to even the playing field. Now, the playing field is not even, and Florida's colleges and universities are suffering because of it.

Just because someone doesn't agree with your political ideology does NOT mean they're uneducated. Whoa.
