FILE - In this March 13, 2015 file photo Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. speaks at Bowie State University in Bowie, Md. In the Republican roar over Common Core, various myths are being peddled as fact. Even so, the 2016 GOP presidential prospects who are criticizing Common Core have a point _ if an overstated one _ when they dispute the notion that it is strictly a voluntary initiative that bubbled up from communities and states. In complicated but unmistakable ways, the federal government does put pressure on states to live up to the standards. (AP Photo/Jose Luis Magana, File) (AP)
