too many stupid, delinquent whities out there. you'd be disappointed.
Sorry, but you'd be wrong. Check out scores by race:

Fast Facts
In Little Rock, there are racist blacks running the school system. They even admit it. All the good teachers have either left the city or teach in private schools. Even blacks who want a good education send their kids to private schools. (I know plenty.)
Most European countries are much more homogeneous race-wise than the US.
that white kids out-stat most minorities most of the time is different than presuming they'll propel the country to #1 without the 'burden' of minorities. that's the disappointing stretch youve made.
our history educating minorities plays a role you've also underestimated. europe's got a different history with some different results, despite your homogeneity..

Wrong. The fact is that minorities are driving America's average test scores down. What's worse is the public school systems fail to do anything about this except to 'dumb-down' everyone. We should be asking the hard questions, like "why do blacks perform so poorly in school?" The answers are quite clear: their family unit is in shambles so the parent or parents do not take an active interest in their children's education. Why? One reason is that the government has taken the place of the father for many black households, leaving a single mother to care for the children. That obviously won't work.
I'd like to see less people dependent on the government and more parents taking responsibility for raising their children. But our current system won't let that happen so expect more of the same. In the meantime, follow the Obama plan: send your kids to private schools. Even Bill Clinton did that. They know the truth behind public education.
