Because of a decades-long, concerted effort by Republicans to sabotage it.

It's the classic Republican move. Something works in the country, break it, then use the fact that it doesn't work as proof that it never worked.

Dept of Education was a political payoff made by Carter... nothing more.

Republicans breaking the DOE is the reason you're so stupid as to think that.

It was a documented promise he made to get elected.

If you had more than a single digit IQ, you would realize that doesn't mean "it's nothing more".

Yeah... and test scores for the US schools have declined after the dept was created... LOL

Nice strawman. Democrats are smarter, but the wealthy lean Republican because they plunder real American's money and give it to the rich.
