Those famous "educators", Campbell Brown and Dan Senor, on attack against NY teachers.

13. Okay, I promise to get some of my previous posts together and link to them for you.

It is complicated, I admit. Most of the people behind the "reformers" are billionaires. They have long resented that they were not profiting from public education....so now with Obama and Arne enabling them.....they are taking it over.

Most of the groups formed by reformers have nice little names like Students First (Michelle Rhee's anti-union group) or Democrats for Education Reform (DFER) which is really a conservative bunch.

Most groups do not disclose their funders, they are not required to do so. But there is a huge influential bunch surrounding the Dan Senor family....that is what Muckety is pointing out.

Walton...is Walmart. The Broad Foundation is a very wealthy group close to Arne which trains school leaders to move in and take over school systems as superintendents. They also had an instructor named Randi Weingarten who became president of AFT....and compromised them almost into nothingness.

I will have more later. Late tonight.
