Huckabee Says U.S. Education is Too Much About the Left Brain
Mike Huckabee, a former governor of Arkansas, told Newsweek that “the biggest single mistake we’ve made in the last generation” is having created an education system that focuses too much on developing the logical, left side of the brain.
“When you do that, it’s like having a computer that has a wonderful database and no operating system,” the Republican said in a wide-ranging interview with the news magazine.
Mr. Huckabee said that arts and music education, in particular, should receive greater focus in the United States.
He also said he believes that part of the reason so many students are dropping out of school before they can graduate and move on to college is that they are simply bored in the classroom.

I guess it goes to show
Not all Republicans are stupid
