Obama said it....

2 hours away from the classroom and school that I teach at every day Obama said this:

"The No. 1 issue in terms of us succeeding as an economy is going to be how well we educate and how well we train our kids," Obama said. "Nothing else comes close."

I firmly and whole heartily agree with this statement. I believe that in order to overcome poverty all students need to be given the same opportunities and education.

This is why I serve in the location and job that I serve every single day. I feel that with my impact, hopefully this country is one step closer to overcoming poverty.
