PRESIDENTIAL CALIBRE – OVERNIGHT:   REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR RON DeSANTIS OF FLORIDA IS FAST EMERGING AS A MAJOR CANIDATE FOR PRESIDENT IN 2024.   HE ACTUALLY HAS A RECORD, AND AN EXCELLENT ONE, AND HE'S ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES OF OUR TIME.  NOW HE SEEKS TO LEAD IN THE PUSHBACK AGAINST THE MAD MEDIOCRITY OF OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.  FROM DAILYWIRE: 

Florida is purging the teaching of “critical race theory and other unsubstantiated theories” from its public schools.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis updated the public on his state’s new educational priorities in a press conference on Wednesday. The governor said that the state’s civic education should focus on “foundational principles” rather than narratives such as critical race theory that views all of history through the lens of race, and suggests that racism still infects almost every institution in the U.S. today.

Critical race theory has gained traction recently, being prominently displayed in The New York Times’s "1619 Project," which reframed the history of the United States as a country entirely built on slavery rather than on the principles of the Declaration of Independence.

“Florida civics curriculum will incorporate foundational concepts with the best materials, and it will expressly exclude unsanctioned narratives like critical race theory and other unsubstantiated theories,” DeSantis said. “Let me be clear, there’s no room in our classrooms for things like critical race theory. Teaching kids to hate their country and to hate each other is not worth one red cent of taxpayer money. So we will invest in actual, solid, true curriculum and we will be a leader in the development and implementation of a world class civics education.”

COMMENT:  Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.  And DeSantis says it so well.  He will be called a racist, and lectured to by "journalists" who know so little.  But he'll have the public behind him, and I know he'll be able to present his ideas to minority voters, and win them over.

Major fights ahead.  We have some very good people.
