Two or three times is enough. Testing is probably not the answer. Fix the Curriculum.

Our Politics Are Sick
America has a political autoimmune disorder, where the system mistakenly attacks itself.I think the illness is more akin to cancer. The Immune system does not attack the problem. -
A Culture of 'Perform Yourself' - Room for Debate

Doctor and Patient: In Search of a Better MCAT
Recently the college-age daughter of a friend talked to me about her dream of becoming a doctor. She was doing well as a psychology major and in her pre-medical courses, was working as a research assistant for a pediatrician at a nearby medical sc...It does very well. Harvard medical does different. There are off shore schools also.http://hms.harvard.edu/admissions/http://hms.harvard.edu/admissions/default.asp?page=application

NATO's Crisis of Ambition - Room for Debate
Would NATO as a collective security community be a sound investment of strategic value to the U.S.?A silly world view of a rather serious problem. Nato has always been a collective security organization for Europe. SEATO does Asia. Know more and think more.

Cutting Off Illegal Labor Would Have Upsides and Downsides - Room for Debate
Illegal immigrants don’t just fill jobs; they also buy stuff with the money they earn, spurring demand and creating jobs in other parts of the economy.A wrong model. Private employers are not charities. There would be only a downside under the present rules.

The test is trying to find a group of individuals who can acquire those skills. It does very well.Harvard Medical has tried another approach.

Reckoning in the Gulf
What's the use of having "big government" if it doesn't use the full force of its reach and power to regulate and punish "big business"? We need not just civil but criminal prosecutions for corporate and regulatory wrongdoing. We also need to make sure that businesses can't be set up in such a way as to protect their leaders from culpability for decisions that hurt people or the environment. It already looks like Wall Street is going to walk. Please let's don't let BP (or those who were supposed to be regulating them) walk away scot free.The Lawyers are building cases. This can go on for years.They will not walk.

New York Congressman Resigns Over Shirtless Photo
For those who are asking what has this got to do with whether he's doing a good job? I'm inclined to say the same thing, which is what I said about that good and competent president, Bill Clinton, when the Replutocrats impeached him. Did you say that then also?The problem is that his presence in the congress would be a constant distraction.He is a Republican from a state with a Democrat governor.
