Tax relief for homeschooling, private & religious schools
I support the right of parents to provide for the education of their children in the manner they deem best, including homeschooling... and my administration will oppose any federal legislation that would interfere with or restrict that liberty.
I wholeheartedly support the unimpeded right of parents to provide for the education of their children in the manner they deem best, including homeschooling or private or religious instruction.
My Administration will oppose any and all federal legislation that would interfere with or restrict that liberty.
I support equitable tax relief for families whose children do not attend government schools. "Education" will only
start to improve in this country when control of the education of our children is returned to the states, the local communities and, most importantly, to the parents.

Disband the Department of Education; it's unconstitutional
If I were President, I would disband the Department of Education. Does anybody really believe that, despite the billions of dollars spent, that the "education system" is not deteriorating at a rapid pace in the United States?
Maybe it's time to get back to the basics, including following the Constitution of these United States: the 10th Amendment sets forth: 'The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the
States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.'Because the federal government has absolutely no jurisdiction concerning the education of our children, the United States Department of Education will be abolished under a
Chuck Baldwin Administration, and I will work to have all federal legislation related to education repealed. I oppose enactment of any federal laws subsidizing or regulating the education of children.

Would be best friend homeschoolers ever had in White House
As President, I would be the best friend that gun owners (and lawful gun dealers), homeschoolers, and veterans ever had in the White House.
These are three of the most persecuted, harassed, or overlooked groups of people in the country. But not if I were President
