You just admitted it had Republican roots. You TDS people don't ever tell the truth without blaming someone else. Scardy cats and victims. No wonder our current military is so weak

And I stick by my statement that many good Republican ideas get screwed up when taken up by the liberal left.
One has to look no further than the quotes from the OP.
"The mandatory taxpayer-funded conferences that teachers are required to attend now often include Common Core. However, rather than keeping their workshops focused on education, the platform has been used to promote politically correct propaganda."
"The organization UnboundEd, for instance, fuels the flames of racial injustice and inequality under the guise of Common Core. At a conference last year, UnboundEd CEO Kate Gerson reportedly told teachers, “If you are under the impression that there are good white people and bad white people, you’re wrong.'"
If they stuck to the "roots" of actual common core focused on education, it may have still been a success. Instead they morphed it into politically correct propaganda. That was certainly not a "Republican initiative".
Common Core was pushed and implemented in it's current largely misguided and poor format by the Obama Administration(Just like ObamaCare). The further horrendous morphing of it is a result of the liberal education system.
