Sounds good to me. Notice no mention of bussing anyone anywhere against 
their will. But, of course, those of you who hate Edwards and education 
look for any little lie you can put forward.

NEW ORLEANS -- Sen. John Edwards plans to warn later this week that the 
nation=3Fs schools have become segregated by race and income, and he will 
propose measures to diversify both inner-city and middle-class schools.

The plan calls for beefing up inner-city magnet schools to attract 
suburban kids, and providing extra money for schools in middle-class 
areas as a reward for enrolling more low-income students.

During a town meeting staged in a New Orleans museum by ABC=3Fs =3FGood 
Morning America,=3F he said the nation=3Fs schools reflect the =3Ftwo 
Americas=3F that he wants to unite with the ideas he=3Fs proposing on this 
week=3Fs =3FRoad to One America=3F swing through the South and Appalachia.

=3FWe still have two public school systems in this country,=3F Edwards 
said. =3FThey're not segregated just based on race. They're segregated, 
to a large extent, based on economics, which has racial implications.=3F

=3FThe result is,=3F Edwards continued, =3Fif you live in a wealthy suburban 
area, the odds are very high that your child will get a very good 
public school education. If you live in the inner city or if you live 
in a poor rural area, the odds of that go down dramatically. And I 
think there are very specific things we can do to not only improve the 
quality of the education in those areas but also to improve the quality 
of our schools at large.=3F
