It is not true. Republicans want a good education for every single child in america. We should measure how much we care about education by how much we spend. But how much students learn. Wasted onwe see money the priorities of teachers unions, not children. Education is too important to let policies be dictated by special interests. Education is key to Opening Doors of opportunity and for fighting poverty. It brings us to principle number eight. The best Antipoverty Program is a Strong Family and a good job. Our focus should be on getting people out of poverty by lifting up all people and helping them find work. We need an effective the safety net. The federal government Antipoverty Programs have become mismanaged and ineffective. We should restructure and consolidate them, give them more power to the states and actually measure the results. Doing this same thing get the same result. 45 million of our fellow americans are living in poverty. As my friend and my congressman paul ryan has
Case in the United States now, as we know it is, why are we having news conferences like this, and why are we also afraid . If theres no chance of an outbreak, what is it about this disease that frightens you and us . Ok, so we are having the press conference because we need to get information out because theres a lot of fear, and the reason theres a lot of fear is that there are many things when you have outbreaks its the unknown, the cataclysmic nature of it, mainly, it is acute. It kills in a high percentage, and it kills quickly. That in and of itself almost intuitively makes people frightened.

Effort. The problem is, how do you remove this group . Congress appears to be on the verge of green lighting a plan to arm syrian rebels. We know there is a lot of factions to the Free Syrian Army. Different forces we cannot control are at play. Who is the Free Syrian Army we would be training . You have questions about the plan. Its a mistake to arm them. Most of the arms weve given to them have wound up in the hands of isis because isis takes it from them. Would air power be enough . The u. S. Is expanding the air assault in iraq. The number of u. S. Air strikes in iraq now numbering over 160. The question is, what do we do in syria . Who exactly would we be training . Is this a war of necessity or choice. We are where we are where we are. Weve got a generational problem which is to say a 20year problem. These are the choices we have. Theres not a consensus on what happens afterwards. The American People support his plan to attack isis and are deeply skeptical of the plan and will it

What does that tell you . The war of words on what to call what the United States military is doing to the Islamic State seems to have settled on the simplest word of all, war. We are at war with isil as we are with al qaeda. But this war will not have all
To you. Im jim sciutto. Poppy harlow on assignment, on this Midterm Election eve, a brandnew cnn poll shows a clear preference among likely voters for control of the next congress. On the socalled generic ballot asking which party should be in charge of congress, 55 say democrats, 42 say republicans. 7 in 10 likely voters say their votes reflect their views of President Trump, who is not on any ballot but who tells supporters to pretend that he is. President trumps job approval rating, 39 in our poll. The lowest of any president facing his first midterms in well over 60 years.
