>Please tell me how the whitehouse singlehandedly stopped gay marriage and how the whitehouse is controlling what is taught or not taught in our schools Walter. In the U.S. the curriculum is actually decided by local school boards with input and guidelines by the state. That explains the sometimes large discrepancy between states. All states provide course guidelines that meet college entrance standards but other than that, it is not controlled in anyway by the whitehouse. This is also why parents will move from locale to locale or to another state so their children can attend a better school.
For the record. I did get this information from a dutch journalist, but if you search google on
conservatives sexual education texas you'll get more info on the matter.
