Oklahoma!!!
Can we include Oklahoma in Texas' succession? Reddest state in the union from what I recall. Wonder why? OKLAHOMA CITY -- Only one in four Oklahoma public high school students can name the first President of the United States, according to a survey released today. The survey was commissioned by the Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs in observance of Constitution Day on Thursday. Brandon Dutcher is with the conservative think tank and said the group wanted to find out how much civic knowledge Oklahoma high school students know. The Oklahoma City-based think tank enlisted national research firm, Strategic Vision, to access students' basic civic knowledge. "They're questions taken from the actual exam that you have to take to become a U.S. citizen," Dutcher said. A thousand students were given 10 questions drawn from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services item bank. Candidates for U.S. citizenship must answer six questions correctly in order to become citizens. About 92 percent of the people who take the citizenship test pass on their first try, according to immigration service data. However, Oklahoma students did not fare as well. Only about 3 percent of the students surveyed would have passed the citizenship test. Dutcher said this is not just a problem in Oklahoma. He said Arizona had similar results, which left him concerned for the entire country. "Jefferson later said that a nation can't expect to be ignorant and free," Dutcher said. "It points to a real serious problem. We're not going to remain ignorant and free." |

Can we include Oklahoma in Texas' succession? I take that you intended to say "secession," instead of "succession"? Considering the general undercurrent of discontent with the political propaganda in this group, though, today's word for you is "cessation." -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

What's racist in pointing out that Oklahoma is giving their students a **** poor education? Did you actually read the article or did your knee jerk up to the keyboard and start typing? You live (as in stew) in southern Alabama and you think you're in a position to judge racism? You and your neighbors are burdened with prejudice that goes back generations. |
