Whichever hates America the most. take your pick, really...
"The first stage of this education being the schools of the hundreds, wherein the great mass of the people will receive their instruction, the principal foundations of future order will be laid here. Instead, therefore, of putting the Bible and Testament into the hands of the children at an age when their judgments are not sufficiently matured for religious inquiries, their memories may here be stored with the most useful facts from Grecian, Roman, European, and American history. The first elements of morality too may be instilled into their minds; such as, when further developed as their judgments advance in strength, may teach them how to work out their own greatest happiness"

It isn't up to government to push anything. the parents have the right to have religion should they choose, unfortunately the bigger egos of the supreme court forgot that. schools were so much better when the parents ran them instead of big government. the boards answered to the parents not bureaucrats.

Santorum would love to.
Romney would if he thought it would get him elected.
Paul would just let the states do it instead.

Santorum. Romney probably would want to but, being Mormon, he would be afraid being trounced if he tried. z
