when it is predicated on fraud, when it is predicated on deliberate acts of deceit, those people who committed those crimes ought to be in jail and they ought to serve a long, long time before they ever see the light of day again. I firmly believe that. Not only that, I just want to reiterate what I said before. Who is producing these clowns? What business schools are they coming from? Let us find out what business schools, what college professors train people to believe that they can lie and cheat and steal here in America and somehow live in lavish houses and get away with it. The message needs to be sent that anybody who trains these kinds of clowns needs to be exposed right along with the perpetrators. The perpetrators need to go to jail. My goodness, we ought to have a review of the curriculum in business schools to find out what kinds of ethics classes that they are exposing American students to, because it is not good enough, and we just have to bring this to an end as quickly as possible. It will destroy American society as we know it. This is a huge threat. The magnitude of this just cannot be overestimated and overstated.

The question is now, when we see all of the reform that is taking place, before you didn't know where your qualified teachers were, you wouldn't say where the distribution was, your graduation rate--any improvement made you AYP.
