" if Catholics have their schools and buildings, and Protestants have theirs, if we can't see ourselves in one another, if fear or resentment are allowed to harden - that too encourages division..."
Wow, Obama thinks the problem is that parents have a choice of schools, and he denounces faith-based educational options.
Of course, his criticism of faith-based education doesn't seem to apply to the school where he sends his daughters:
"Sidwell Friends School is an educational community inspired by the values of the Religious Society of Friends."
