    It's going to be a long 4 years for us all, Trump choices for SoD is perfect and his others can get the job done. His choice for SoEd and SoEn are atrocious. I am sure the lemmings will line right up and follow. I watch the SoEd hearing and she simple not qualified. If you think she is, send your kids to one of her charter schools ran in Detroit, if it's still open.

    Yes, and they will fail in other urban cities with high poverty rates. The largest is closing due to funding and academics. Somehow and I don't know how the school managed to make students dumber. The school performed worst than Detroit Public Schools, which I thought was pretty hard to do.

    I am optimistic about the next four years, but, you are correct with Sec of Education pick Betsy DeVos. Unqualified is putting it extremely polite.
