Clever Obama! He is inspiring the America youth but we can't compare the American youth with Indian and Chinese. Americans are much ahead of them. Obama need not to worry.

Barack Obama needs not to worry. Until the corrupt politicians and bureaucrats are taking care of India, Indian youth can never outdo the American.

He is not kidding about how bad American schools are. There are 18 year olds graduating from high school who can barely read. As a teacher I was told point blank not to bother teaching my students to read as I would be reading ”THE TEST” to them. I was to devote my time to drilling for ”THE TEST”
As long as they attach school funding to ”THE TEST” there will be schools running after the bucks through deceit and neglect of education.
So while American students are being subjected to rote memorization drills and taught that if you answer every question that you don’t know the answer to with the letter C, then you will still get enough right to pass, the rest of the world is actually teaching the subjects.
No child left behind, left them all behind.
