Whenever someone says to me, 'Are you for or against Common Core,' the first question I ask is, 'What do you think Common Core is?' You will get a different answer from every single person. You will literally get a different answer.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
To some people, Common Core means what it actually is, which is a set of standards. That's not necessarily most people. To other people, Common Core is a new curriculum that's been implemented at their school that they don't understand. It's applying new teaching tools.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Common Core isn't a test, but for some people it is, because they don't like the testing piece of it.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
The thing that bothers me about journalism is the false equivalency we sometimes place on certain issues.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
It's better to be honest about your opinions than to pretend you don't have them.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
I know people talk about poverty and other factors, but there is very little I can do to ensure that a child has a stable two-parent home. But what if we can give them a shot in the classroom with a stable, high-standards environment?
Quote by -Campbell Brown
I don't know if a government bailout will rescue America's auto industry, but I do know that if there is a bailout, it better come with a big, bright stop sign and lots of strings attached.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
It has seemed, at times, like American carmakers think car buyers are so blindly loyal that they will keep coming back - despite the sticker shock - for crummy cars that guzzle gas, fall apart too soon, and cost too much to repair.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Let's just start with the word 'diva.' It is obviously a sexist slight - a term that is only applied to women, almost always in a derogatory way. It's usually applied to women who are viewed as overly ambitious. It is applied to demanding women, to women who follow their own path.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
We are not yet a society free of sexism, and this will continue to be an issue for all women candidates.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Bipartisanship is really tough to achieve when everyone on both sides is left with a bad, bad taste in their mouths.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Women get scrutinized based on appearance far more than men. And look, I speak from experience here. When I wear a bad outfit on the air, I get viewer e-mail complaining about it. A lot of e-mail. Seriously.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
When Wolf Blitzer wears a not-so-great tie, how much e-mail do you think he gets? My point is, for women, unfortunately, appearance is part of the job.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
I myself have raised plenty of questions about Sarah Palin, much to the annoyance of the McCain campaign. But those questions have been about her qualifications and experience, never her appearance.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
If you live in the overlapping world of politics and media, as I am learning, anything less than full transparency can potentially do you in.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
After a 15-year career in television news, sometimes spent biting my tongue in the name of objectivity and balance, I retired to raise our two small children.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
I have been fortunate that publications like the 'New York Times' and 'The Wall Street Journal' have allowed me to share some of my opinions with a wider audience.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
'Morning Joe' host Mika Brzezinski's personal life is a minefield. Her father is Zbigniew Brzezinski, former national security adviser to President Jimmy Carter, and while one brother is an Obama appointee, the other advises Romney.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
By resisting almost any change aimed at improving our public schools, teachers' unions have become a ripe target for reformers across the ideological spectrum.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Sometimes, in the midst of a tragedy like the Newton massacre, we witness incredible acts of valor, tenderness, grace, and decency. We saw it from Sandy Hook Elementary School's teachers, students, and parents, as well as from their community and country. The outpouring of sympathy and help has been touching and, at times, inspiring.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Heartless zealotry, whether from the religious right or from the teachers' union on the left, is always troubling.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Mr. Obama is particularly well positioned to challenge Hollywood because of his special relationship with the media world's elites. They might be more likely to heed criticism coming from Mr. Obama than from any other president or member of Congress.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Parents should be allowed to choose which cable or satellite channels - sources of the most extreme content - come into their homes.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
As anyone who has recently seen PG-13 movies knows, the level of violence in them has increased to the point of making the Motion Picture Association of America's voluntary rating system meaningless.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
The president has been more than willing to challenge the National Rifle Association, but that is like a Republican president standing up to labor unions - not a move that risks anything with his core supporters. Mr. Obama could show some real bravery by taking on Hollywood.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
What is happening with automation and globalization, that's not going away.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
The consequences of substandard teaching go far beyond whether college or a good job is in reach. They affect earning potential, with implications throughout a person's life.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Our education system is not preparing young people for the world they will face.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
The government sets targets for increased four-year high school graduation rates as part of its agenda for improving Americans' health.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
The protests and pain over the deaths of Eric Garner and Michael Brown had me wondering if we can ever experience the world as others do. For no matter how disputed the circumstances of both cases, many people see what happened in black and white.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
I was born and raised in Louisiana - a small town called Ferriday, north of Baton Rouge.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
My favorite stories are about kids who refuse to give up; their homes and schools may have been destroyed; they've probably had to rely on themselves more than a lot of adults do, and they've resisted the many bad alternatives that city life offers to poor teens.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
While the protection of speech is at the bedrock of our democracy, it's critical as a nation that we exercise our right every day - and that includes embracing and engaging with those we may not agree with.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Voters have demonstrated time and again that candidates who buck the teachers' union are rewarded.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Perhaps there is no greater evidence that the teachers' union has swung too far out of the mainstream that they both have been a target of near-constant criticism from Secretary of Education Arne Duncan.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
More and more parents and voters have rejected the teachers' union antiquated, top down, one-size-fits-all approach to education and continue to elect candidates who embrace reform that celebrates students and empowers parents.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
In 'The Founders,' his new book about top charter schools, Richard Whitmire traces both the 'revolution' these schools brought about in many American cities as well as a parallel phenomenon, 'the charter pushback campaigns.'
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Charter opponents often try to delegitimize strong testing results like those in Boston by attributing them to excessive test prep - as New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio did recently.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
If Boston charters can be stymied despite their extraordinary success, charters anywhere can be stopped.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
It is unimaginable that anyone, right or left, can aspire to be president without having thought about this. Every candidate has the stage; the Republicans have used it to fuss unproductively over the Common Core. The Democrats have all but refused to speak.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Education has not traditionally been a large concern in presidential elections, presumably because the president does not run schools.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
As David Cameron realizes, we do not have time for the tweaks and increments favored by institutions built to resist change.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Our educational establishment is failing; it is past time for courage, honesty, and action commensurate with the need, particularly here in the United States.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
When I listen to President Obama speak to and about women, he sometimes sounds too paternalistic for my taste.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
Some women are smarter than men, and some aren't. But to suggest to women that they deserve dominance instead of equality is at best a cheap applause line.
Quote by -Campbell Brown
My cousin in Louisiana started a small company with a little savings, renovating houses. A single mom, she saved enough to buy a home and provide child care for her son. When the economy went belly up, so did her company. She was forced to sell her home and move in with her parents.
