Wendy Kopp on The Colbert Report

Wendy Kopp was on the Colbert Report earlier this week.  She was great and got all of the key points across, despite Colbert's attempts to make her laugh with hilarious comments like "Why is Teach for America necessary if there's No Child Left Behind.  After all, now there's no child left behind -- it's right there in the title!", and if we really want equal education for all, why don't we eliminate schools entirely, and "You believe in book learning, but what about the school of hard knocks?  That's the school I went to -- and then went to Dartmouth."  You can watch the interview at: http://www.comedycentral.com/motherload/?lnk=v&ml_video=81750 (part 2 is at: http://www.comedycentral.com/motherload/?lnk=v&ml_video=81749)
