God bless America. Here's your chance to run the country for 100 days. All you have to do is convince a few of your friends to go along with you in Winter 2008 (February or March, yet to be finalized) and check the box of your choice.
If you want to:
1. Re-establish American alliances and show that we are strong and just, then check "John Edwards."
2. Bring the troops home from Iraq, then check "Hilary Clinton."
3. Bring the troops home from Iraq, then check "Barack Obama." (hey, I just transcribe)
4. Upgrade schools, offer full-day kindergarten to all, and set teacher minimum wage to $40,000, then check "Bill Richardson."

FYI: I don't know if it's actually the legal minimum, but in Texas (particularly Houston)most school districts set $40,000 as the minimum (no experienced-- certified or not).
Is it less in other areas? I can't imagine-- Texas has a really low cost of living compared to much of the US.

Here are a couple of sites I found:

It looks like low $30's is possible for a new teacher.
Thanks for your question!
Wow.
Explains a lot about the schools in Louisiana.
