Don't run away from the the facts....the truth is resources bring about better environment, better teachers, better equipment, better security, better of everything - and when they lack, there is better of nothing. It's like leading a horse to a dry swamp and expect him to come out not thirsty.
Here are some facts - don't be in denial. D.C. led the nation in expenditures/pupil in 2004-2005. More than enough money for a really good education. What is wrong then?

People need to stop pointing fingers at other people and complaining. What have you done to help racism in this country? Like "actively"? Have you mentored some low-income Black children? Have you volunteered to help out in an inner-city school? Have you driven into the ghetto and picked up some young children and given them a gift and tell them how special they are? Probably not...because you don't care. So if you don't care, stop complaining already.
Have YOU availed yourself to poor whites, hispanics, immigrants? The only people I see complaining are the ones blaming "white" america for their ills.

Did you even venture a peak at the numbers? Probably not. That would blow your theory out of the water, wouldn't it?

$15000/student in D.C.

That's on the monetary level with THE BEST of private schools.

Why doesn't it work?

If you really think that money is sufficient then how do you explain the school closing that are going on? You are reading the facts and i'm seeing the fact.

Default Who cares

Let's stop judging people by the company they keep or who they associate with. If you are a true Christrians you would know if your Pastor is preaching hate or not. You just have to use your own judgement. Religion, Personal issues and sexual preference should not stop you for choosing the best candidate.

How do you explain it?

How do you explain the poor graduation rate, attendance rate, drop-out rate?

AIDS & HIV Statistics for USA by race and ethnicity

Can anyone take responsibility for themselves anymore? No it all the governments fault. All HIV infections caused be high risk sexual contact or injection drug use is 100% preventable. All you need is education and a good parent. If someone does know the consequences of sex they should not partake and certainly not reproduce.

NEWS FLASH: I NEVER SAID THEY WERE. That being said here's another NEWS FLASH FOR YOU:

.S. GOV'T CREATED THE AIDS VIRUS"
WORLD NEWS EXCLUSIVE (broken link)

Kate McClare

SAN DIEGO -- The U.S. government created the deadly AIDS virus as a way of wiping out blacks and other minorities around the world, says a researcher who's fought for 10 years to bring his eye-opening charge to light.
Boyd E. Graves, a lawyer and graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, says he has "irrefutable evidence of the United States' secret plan to cull world populations by unleashing a stealth biological microorganism."
Graves insists the AIDS virus was developed in an ultrasecret government project called the Special Virus Program.
"We believe HIV is the product of intent. We believe AIDS is the product of design," he said in a telephone interview last month from New York City, before addressing the Black African Holocaust Conference.
According to a report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, African-Americans account for 38 percent of all AIDS cases in this country -- yet they represent only 12 percent of the population. And the disease has attacked millions of people in Africa, which has suffered from the pandemic more than anywhere else in the world.
AIDS is one of the most important weapons in the government arsenal of biological terrorism, declares Graves. He has filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in San Diego demanding an open review of the facts he's uncovered, including the two most shocking elements:

- A Special Virus Flow Chart that details the government's "coordinated research program to develop a cancer virus that depletes the immune system."
- A photograph of a manmade virus that's virtually identical to the AIDS virus.
Yet this photograph was shot in 1971 -- 14 years before the known AIDS virus was discovered.
Graves also has documents from government and scientific leaders, which reveal sinister intentions on the part of scientists and government leaders.
A 1948 memo from a top State Department official, for instance, urges colleagues to "get on with the task of dealing with the burgeoning populations of the Third World."
For those who think the U.S. government would never do such a terrible thing to any of its people, Graves offers as evidence the horrendous revelations about the Tuskeegee Project.
In that infamous program, which began in 1932, government researchers secretly infected black men with syphilis so they could study the disease -- even after a cure had been found.
"Between 1964 and 1978, the secret federal virus program spent $550 million of taxpayer money to invent AIDS," Graves writes on his Web site, www.boydgraves.com
"It is now necessary to spend whatever it takes to dismantle an invention that has led to the greatest crime against humanity in the history of the world," he declares.
Whose crying? I merely post articles to back up the ridiculous denials of racism no longer existing. As for people who do not take responsibility for themselves, we agree on that one. Of course you know that too covers all races, creeds and color.
