Obama celebrates college gender gap
Article here. Excerpt:
'“Today, thanks in no small part to the confidence and determination they developed through competitive sports and the work ethic they learned with their teammates, girls who play sports are more likely to excel in school,” wrote Obama. “In fact, more women as a whole now graduate from college than men. This is a great accomplishment — not just for one sport or one college or even just for women but for America. And this is what Title IX is all about.”
...
“We have come so far. But there’s so much farther we can go,” Obama wrote. “There are always more barriers we can break and more progress we can make. As president, I’ll do my part to keep Title IX strong and vibrant, and maintain our schools as doorways of opportunity so every child has a fair shot at success.”'

Every child?
Every child except male children. We are going to use our police and military to psychologically and emotionally torture them.
Yep--my thought as well
It's amazing how invisible boys and men have become. Girls are now "every child."
That's why I won't be voting for Obama.
