IMHO public officials should be REQUIRED to send their kids to
public schools. It would give them a real incentive to clean up
the school system rather than ignoring it.
A few related ideas that might make the world a better place:
1. Restrict the military world-wide to offspring of public
officials (better yet settle international disputes by
making the public officials of the respective countries
fight to the death in an arena and charge admission:-).
2. Make the spouses of public officials work on the wards in
military hospitals.
3. Require U.S. Senators and congress-critters to live in
Washington D.C. -- not in suburban Maryland and
Virginia.
I'm sure that there are other items that could be added to this
list, but this would make for some interesting changes.

p.s. Sidwell Friends School is where Nixon's daughters went (I
know because I was accepted there in 1957 but decided to go
to public school in Montgomery County instead). It is noted
for academic excellence, but probably has a very liberal bias
being a Friends school.
