I doubt that he cares anything about the border and this is a squander of time and taxpayer money. Some people view this as political grandstanding and part of his bid to be the next VP candidate.

A pet rock would do a better job than the current VP.

Congress can't even pass a budget to fund the government.

Just maybe, some of the students could learn how to read, write, and learn a little bit about math. Their texting skills are already, just fine.

The fact that legislators would use this for political gain and schools would use this as a financial game (teaching to the tests so they get an A rating, which gives them more money, wash-rinse-repeat). is a no from me. Didn't they learn something from the failure of the No Child Left Behind?
