2000 Bush Gore Debate

Here is a video of the 2000 Bush-Gore debate. This section concerns education. I thought this debate on education policy was interesting having just finished high school two years ago and having experienced the changes specifically in regard to standardized tests. I also thought it was interesting that Bush criticized Gore's program for being too expensive. Bush then went on to spend a fortune in war instead of investing in our country, a subject that has recently been brought up by Obama. He has used the war to justify spending domestically.
