Leave Home Schoolers Alone

Les Riley, the Mississippi Constitution Party's 2007 nominee for state agriculture commissioner, has posted several comments on this piece from Third Party Watch:

"'There is no more important task for a parent than the education of one’s children. That responsibility belongs to parents, not the government,” insists Wayne Allyn Root [of Nevada], the Libertarian Party candidate for vice president [Bob Barr's running mate]. “As a home school parent myself, I know how important it is for government to not interfere in the education process.'

"Wayne Root and his wife Debra home school their four young children. Wayne is the first home school father on a presidential ticket in modern history. Root’s full statement can be found here."
