Addressing a mostly black audience of hundreds of activists, politicians and executives at the National Urban League convention, Senator McCain focused on school choice.
McCain drew applause for touting increased domestic oil production, tax credits to families and bonuses for teachers in troubled schools.
Watch the following Associated Press video report:
While McCain favors school choice, Obama, kowtowing to the teachers unions, opposes school choice. Obama has proposed new educational programs, which includes a "Zero to Five" plan for infants, will cost $18 billion a year -- $72 billion over four years. Obama proposes to pay for his huge expansion of the federal government's role in education by slashing NASA's budget, delaying the Constellation program for five years. The Constellation Program is designed to maintain American presence in low Earth orbit, establish an outpost on the Moon and lay the foundation to explore Mars.
