The Teaser for Tuesday, September 28, 2010

"The Teaser” is a preview of the guests we have lined up for the next day – so you know when to tune in (and when to set your alarm!).

Guests and times are always subject to change.

6:40AM Randi Weingarten, President of the American Teacher’s Federation, on the criticism the President made about teachers defending the status quo when so many schools are “drop out factories,” what she makes of the President’s case for a longer school year, his comment that if bad teachers should be fired if they're not cutting it and his new initiative to recruit 10,000 STEM teachers over the next 2 years.

7:40AM Cord Jefferson, Washington Reporter for TheRoot,com and Emma Roller, Editor in Chief, The Daily Cardinal, on the President’s trip to Albuquerque, NM and Madison, WI and what he needs to do to energize voters, especially the younger ones who helped him get elected.

8:10AM Alex Sink, (D) Florida Gubernatorial Candidate, on how she plans to appeal to voters who may be riding the anti-establishment tide and see her opponent Rick Scott as an outsider.

    What's up with all the hype about education. We have plenty of educated people but no jobs available for them. The u.s. student gets more hours on instruction than any other country. Longer school means more money for teachers and higher taxes for everyone else. It is time to stop mandatory education, and implement on line high schools. Corporations have plenty of educated people to pick from around the world. Cheap labor is what employers want. Congress needs to get real by implementing tariffs on china, eliminating all work visas for foreign workers, eliminaing tax deductions for all outsourced jobs and eliminating all tax deductions for u.s. companies that hire illegals or foreign workers . Help the u.s. worker or the u.s. will not help you. The gap between rich and poor is now at its highest level, and the poverty level is also at its highest level. Congress both dems and pubs are worthless. Vote them out or they will eliminate your job.

    Without a promising future for it's citizens "jobs, and the American dream" Our Government is just wasting money. There is a big difference in teaching a person to succeed the teaching them to survive. Majority of our citizens are just trying to survive.
