TOR Radio No. 68, "John Whitehead on Common Core: 'The Dictator’s Dream'" -- 2013 Oct 03 TH

On this edition of Traces of Reality Radio: Guillermo is joined by constitutional attorney, author, and president of the Rutherford Institute, John W. Whitehead.  Guillermo and John discuss the problems with public education and how they will only be compounded by the adoption of the Common Core State Standards Initiative.

We discuss the inherent problems with a common curriculum controlled by a central authority in the state (the dictator’s dream), the data-mining and surveillance implications of the initiative, who stands to gain financially from its implementation, and how parents and students can best opt-out and escape the system.

From RepublicBroadcasting.org:
With a passion for Liberty, Guillermo has been involved in the Ron Paul Revolution since 2007, serving most recently as a National Delegate for Paul in 2012. As both a student and teacher of American History, much of what Guillermo discusses is based on a historical perspective, with emphasis on the struggle between liberty and tyranny, our deteriorating Constitution and civil rights. His background in Psychology and Sociology allow him the keen insight to filter through the propaganda and deliver the "traces of reality" that are left behind.
