Reply #26: They may think it's the correct thing to do

but thinking doesn't cut it. Where is their educational research to back up their privatization scheme? The results from Chicago won't help them. Neither Obama nor Duncan have education experience in the public schools, neither of them understand the issues, neither of them are talking to teachers in the trenches. Until they open a dialog, a meaningful dialog, education will be on a very slippery slope in this country.

Teachers aren't the villians.
