host: gallup has done a recent survey on how many americans here education and the responsibility or wall of the federal government. it is available online at gallup.com. they prefer local school boards over federal government by a rate of 56% to 15%. stevensville, maryland. good morning. the republican line. caller: good morning. i believe the content of the test is important, not english american history, critical thinking science, is being important. kids aren't being taught how to read cursive writing, so one day there will be no one left that can read the original founding document. i think also that there is too much emphasis placed on sex at, homosexuality -- ed homosexuality, transgender information. this sharing with the children is not necessary, that can be done in the home. and that is where the federal government needs to step out. it leads me to believe that there is some sort of an obsession with making sure that children get the central education -- sexual education. thank you. host: thank you for the call. guest: the first comment that the caller is making is really

you don't have to wait for the gallup poll. so that's another plus that's important. unless they are ready to retire they want to be reelected. the votes are important. there is money to go on tv to try to get a few more votes. and once the message is clear even to the ones that you think would never stand for the environment or the climate change, for the consumer protection labor rights, just like that. we had right-wing senators and representatives that could care less for the industries. and within a couple of years they were grazing consumer advocates and they passed almost unanimously in the house even if it was opposed to the end by the auto companies which are powerful forces. once the people wake up, once the people feel the power and once they understand the bumpers and strategy reflecting the majority opinion, one victory like the minimum wage will lead to another victory and lead to another and another. i think there will be a major push for the single-payer as the insurance companies in the next few months raise their premiums enormously and start - >> ho

gallup poll's of the time show that a majority of americans believed that it was up to students to work harder and to compete against the soviet counterparts at all grade levels. in retrospect, jim wright, who was elected to congress in 1954 and would eventually become speaker of the house, wrote in his autobiography, quote, the cold war dominated and in some ways distorted our whole national outlook. the most common argument for the passage of the national defense education act was not the need to improve learning opportunities for the sake of our kids, but the fear that the russian schools were doing a better job than ours and competing -- preparing their youth for the space-age. baby boomers and teenagers whether they knew it or not were not just cold war kids. they were being prepared to be the next generation of cold war fighters. although, i can't imagine that my brother with his david crockett hat and cape, or me with my hopalong cassidy six shooter, or what adults meant when they talked about defending democracy and the american way of life. but that message was implicit. little
