Yes but if left to the people it wouldn't be done due to lack of money to buy textbooks and other supplies and to pay teachers, time, etc. If we want this country to be educated then the government has to be involved because not everyone is as fortunate as you to have parents with the resources to home school their kids. Without the government, I probably wouldn't have had a decent education.


I'm not sure McCain is in physically healthy/young enough to handle being president. It looks like a tough job that makes people age significantly. Who knows if McCain can handle it in his old age. IMO a vote for McCain is a vote for his vice president.
