    Because they are actively wanting to regress their own constituencies in the sake of ideological purity and high-jacking a major political party in the process.

    What say you? Are AP courses finally being shown as the communist infiltration of our academic institutions that we all thought all along?
    What are AP courses, for us not familiar with them?

    These people oppose new standards of AP testing, not AP testing altogether, nor do they want APUSH changes.

    Basically college level classes taught in high school. Since colleges are basically "liberal bastions", they want to do away with as much of that as they can.

    So when do these localities eventually become 100% of the south, Daelak?

    Yea, based off of what I just read, they are opposed to introducing a new revision of current AP classes. Though I have not had time to read to full coursework, I can completely understand and agree with the states rights to determine coursework. You liberals want government run education, you get government run education

    Its Republicans in general. They want to stop being the party of stupid but yet they want to do away with classes that will teach more than the bullshit they whitewashed into their curriculum.

    It's pretty hard not to believe it's what he means when he takes no immediate denouncement to mean all persons are guilty. -.- Especially when, again, this is sensationalized news from a locality.

    No, they want to change current, and in some cases, remove AP US history because it doesn't follow their revisionism.

    Yea, I'll take the whitewashed version over the bullshit spewed by libs now. And based off of the map that was posted earlier, most of America agrees
