isn't it easy to find some common ground with pretty much anyone?
Well, that's why the things that tend to get described as specifically Nazi tend not to be things like "improving the education system" or even more specifically "providing good education for gifted children from all backgrounds" (er, of course some kinds of backgrounds wouldn't have been acceptable to the Nazis) that have pretty wide support from all quarters. Just as describing someone as "very like Richard Feynman" probably doesn't mean that they had some artistic talent and enjoyed drawing.
"providing good education for gifted children from all backgrounds"
Providing special attention to gifted children is extremely controversial. Far more resources are spent on the slow kids.
