Chris Knowlton gave me this no holds barred interview!!!
So I asked him question on these five major topics of intense political discussion. They are education, the economy, immigration, National , And finally World issues. But really shouldn't every politician be running to the microphone to assert their position on either side?
Well don't hold your breath, find out!!!
Mr. Knowlton is a man who is running for congress in the Missouri 5th District House Primary race. This is the first segment of 5 questions these address the topic of Education.
Education
Bootheel Buzz question (1):
As a businessman you know the value of a satisfied customer.
Would you support a tax break or a voucher system to give the right of choice to parents whose children
are in failing public schools to pay for their cost of a private education ?
Chris Knowlton answer (1):
America is ask to look toward new and unproven resources for Energy and by the same people we are forced to try new and innovative methods of schooling our best asset, our children. The evolutionists say that things must be allowed to evolve, yet they hold tight the accreditation and funds for home schooling and vouchers. The first to point out the inconsistency gets their choice of seats in the classroom.
Bootheel Buzz question (2):
Would you be in favor of higher quality education at a lower price if it meant privatizing all K through 12 education services?
Chris Knowlton answer (2):
In theory, yes. Far too long Americans have passed bond issues and fully supported the local school districts as we were ask. In many areas the education of our children and future is more than adequate. Still the option of going private or religious should not be legislated against, just to hold the existing system to its low standards.
Bootheel Buzz question (3):
Would you vote for a bill that restricted educational services to those who are legal citizens?
Chris Knowlton answer (3):
Sadly yes. We are a nation of loving, giving people and we open our arms to immigrants. At some point the wheels fall off. Prior to that happening to the children of our legal immigrants and citizens, I would ask for action to be taken against these lawbreakers.
Bootheel Buzz question (4):
Would you be in favor of all core curriculum classes being taught only in American English?
Chris Knowlton answer (4):
Without question. With English being the language of business, we do an injustice to those we allow to fall behind in this department.
Bootheel Buzz question (5):
The numbers don’t lie since to 60s‘ the decline in overall inner city public education is undeniable.
Would you support a removal of the US Department of Education and transferring that power back to the States?
Chris Knowlton answer (5):
My last few answers lean that way. I want to eliminate the duplicity of government. The layers of endless paperwork for job security and control. I bet that if we reduce the controls in education and other areas we will achieve better results. That is the American experiment and experience. But these are touchy feely subjects that sway many votes and the hearts of many.
