Education is one the most important components of the Obama administration’s policy agenda, and President Obama has identified several goals for improving education in America. “There is no stronger weapon against inequality and no better path to opportunity than an education that can unlock a child’s God-given potential,” he said recently.
The president said in his June 4 speech in Cairo, Egypt: “The source of America’s prosperity has never been merely about the accumulation of wealth, but how well America educates its people. Education is a prerequisite for success in a 21st-century world where jobs can be shipped wherever there’s an Internet connection, and where your best job qualification is not what you do, but what you know.”
