It's annoying that these candidates make all these promises about things that, in all honesty, is not really their duty when it comes to being in the executive branch of the federal government.

I also heard that public school was under the states' governance, not the federal. I guess I am just wrong?! Ugh, there is so much attention giving to the presidents, no wonder they seem to think they are the only ones who will be running the country.

It is interesting, though, for sure.<BR/>-Lynn @ tmaLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10705322275713526894noreply@blogger.com
