I never watch Colbert and The Daily Show anymore. It used to be such a ritual but it's getting to the point where I'm lucky if I see an episode a week...That has to change! Here's why:

Oh, Snap! (with apologies to Ian)
I've heard Geoffery Canada before; he was a guest on, I believe, Talk of the Nation, in the past couple of months. This is a great program, especially the idea of Baby College. There is absolutely a disparity between the haves and have-nots in this country; that disparity is knowledge. The more educated parents are, the more opportunity their children will have. It's not about money (or at least, it's not ALL about money). Knowledge is power; the more knowledge is available to parents to share with their children, the further those children will go. Even if those children decide to become English majors.
"My guest tonight wants to help underprivileged kids go to college. Well, if they major in English, they'll become underprivileged adults."

Ian, don't listen to anything Stephen Colbert says. I know you're going to go far. In fact, don't listen to anything I say. Or, if you must listen to me, take it all with a grain of salt & know I will make up for it in Tibetan sweets.
