I would if there was one. McCain says it's fine how it is, and Obama says all it needs is more funding, which I really don't believe will help, and I don't want my tax dollars to go into that program.
Which means that, in terms of the Education system in this country, I'm back at square one. That's why I was hoping the "college more accessible" thing you mentioned wasn't an extension of that, which it doesn't look like, but I'll have to research it more. If that's what it is, well, that's a point in Obama's favor with me.
Education has a bit more weight for me than most other things right now, to be entirely honest. Both my parents have teaching licenses, even though only one of them is an active high school teacher at the moment. My aunt and uncle from Alabama are university professors (one with a published book!), two of my aunts in St. Louis teach grade school, my cousins in Seattle are home-schooled, and at least one of my closest friends is currently a teacher. I'm surrounded by it daily, and it does affect me.
