Where are the other Harlem Children's Zones?

Obama said in 2007 that he wanted to create 20 replications of the Harlem Children's Zone  throughout the United States and yet we are all still waiting for this to happen.

This article discusses some key factors about why such a replication has not yet occurred. "Obama has pursued looks more like a traditional Great Society Democratic approach: his administration has spent billions of dollars on direct aid to poor people, mostly working-poor families." An alternative to spending money"haphazardly" in poor neighborhoods, there was a blueprint in place to help construct an area that, over time, would benefit that city greatly. My personal opinion is that America is a want now-get now society. We want to see results the second we decide to put a program into place. We are not the type of people who are willing to sit back and be patient even though we know in the long run that it is what will be most beneficial. Canada has proven, that with dedication, patience, and a lot of planning that a rough neighborhood can in fact turn around and produce children who have received a high quality education.

The article also states that a huge downfall to getting many of these other programs off the ground is the lack of such a positive and influential leader such as Canada.  His drive and dedication to the children and their futures truly makes his program soar and gives so many people hope for their community and children's' lives.
