Kerry: Bush Leaving Schools Behind
Democrat John Kerry is giving teachers a promise he claims President Bush has left behind: to put as much money behind the nation's education reforms as allowed under law.

"No broken promises on funding, and no more empty rhetoric on reform," Kerry said in prepared remarks to the American Federation of Teachers. "As president, I will meet our responsibilities. We're going to get this done right because we know that empty rhetoric and empty promises lead to empty dreams, and we won't let that happen in our America."

Kerry was taking his message Friday to 3,000 delegates at the AFT convention, where he was also expected to pick up their endorsement.
