Navy SEAL William McRaven: Education is the biggest US security issue - Business Insider

when asked which national security threat keeps them up at night, one former commander had an unconventional answer: "K-12 education."

"When I was chancellor, I would have a lot of town hall meetings, or meetings with our alumni, and that question always came up," McRaven, who was chancellor of the University of Texas system, said at the Aspen Ideas Festival on June 29. "And they would always ask ... 'What's your number one national security issue?'"McRaven, who stepped down from overseeing one of the largest US school systems in 2018, said he still stood by that thinking.

"So we have got to have an education system within the United States that really does teach and educate young men and women to think critically, to look outside their kind of small microcosm, because if we don't develop those great folks, then our national security in the long run may be in jeopardy," McRaven added.

"There is a school out there for every man and woman in the United States — I don't care what your educational capacity is, what you think it is," McRaven said. "There is a school that will help you matriculate to the point of getting a degree."

This is becoming glaringly obvious and the biggest reason for that is because we have now teachers in our system whom are saddled with crippling college debt, grew up during the 9/11 lies, and have a fundamental miss trust and hatred for everything America, and are now marxists

He should run for President.
