( Common Core, Continued from page 4)
by Valerie Sisneros The following is an excerpt from the Hawaii Rifle Association Newsletter by Dr. Max Cooper“ The U. S. Senate took a role call vote on an amendment to the federal budget to uphold Second Amendment rights and prevent the U. S. from entering into the UN Arms Trade Treaty. The amendment passed 53 Yea to 46 Nay. Not surprisingly, Hawaii’ s
ware education conference in October.“ I don’ t think it’ s costless at all.” In April 2011, he told an audience at the New York Department of Education, in criticizing the sorts of work students are often assigned,“ As you grow up in this world you realize people really don’ t give a s ** t about what you feel or what you think.” Although Coleman sells the program as encouraging students to think about literature, science and other subjects, the baseline philosophy of Common Core, according to critics, isn’ t to create students with a solid understanding of what might be considered“ core knowledge,” but to create students who are designed and ready to be community activists. You can guess which causes they are intended to be activists for. Critics say the curriculum is obsessed with race, gender, class and sexuality as the primary shapers of history, culture and politics. In the case of the Nazi writing assignment, an English teacher at Albany High School in New York had students read Nazi propaganda before handing out the assignment, which the school superintendent, Marguerite Vanden Wyngaard, said was an example of the“ sophisticated” persuasive writing expected under Common Core standards.“ You must argue that Jews are evil, and use solid rationale from government propaganda to convince me of your loyalty to the Third Reich!” the assignment read in part.“… Review in your notebooks the definitions for logos, ethos, and pathos. Choose which argument style will be most effective in making your point. Please remember, your life( here in Nazi Germany in the 30 ′ s) may depend on it!” Vanden Wyngaard said she didn’ t believe there was any“ malice” or“ intent” to be insensitive in the assignment. One-third of the students, to their credit, refused to complete the assignment. That something like the Nazi assignment would pop up in connection to Common Core may not surprise some people. Any way you slice it, Common Core represents nationalization of education. While local governments still retain control over things like reading lists, the program comes with its own series of tests, and Coleman has a goal to rewrite
United Nations Arms Trade Treaty senior Senator, Brian Schatz and Senator Mazie Hirono voted Nay, supporting the Treaty ….. and the President’ s desire to advance gun control for the U. S. through the UN Arms Treaty.” As you are all aware, this horrible amendment is designed to completely sacrifice our Second Amendment rights over to that honest, efficient and effective organization known as the United

Some critics have connected Common Core with Agenda 21, the United Nations’ blueprint to reshape the globe by exerting international control over national and local governments. By virtue of being a Rhodes scholar, Coleman is in an exclusive club that includes some of the world’ s most famous liberals, such as President Clinton. The Rhodes Scholarships were originally set up with the help of the Rothschild Bank. Adding to the mix contributors like the Gates Foundation and GE does little to discourage thoughts along conspiracy lines, particularly when Coleman starts going on about students competing in the global economy. High-sounding intentions aside, the ultimate result of Common Core seems likely to be liberal indoctrination and the creation of an easily manipulated, reactionary populace. That may very well be exactly as intended. Read more: http:// patriotupdate. com / articles / common-core-quietlynationalizing-education / # ixzz2R2YFtlAj
Nations. The fact that our remaining freedoms hang in the balance by such a thin thread is frightening indeed. 53 to 46?? That number should be 100 to 0. Elected Representatives so willing to hand over our sovereignty to the UN dictators and thugs do not deserve re-election. We must do all that we can to right this ship before it’ s too late!!
