At CPAC, Candace Owens calls education reform top priority for America

Conservative firebrand Candace Owens, the mother of two children under age 5, said her role as the matriarch of a growing family is crystalizing her belief that the greatest threat facing America today is its horrible education system.

Speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Thursday, Owens put much of the blame for the grim state of affairs in America today on failing and biased schools, colleges and universities.

She spoke of how becoming a mother and raising a family has really made the battles over education and other issues conservatives fight seem seem more important than ever.
