Let Me Ask you a Question

Suppose you were hiring a mechanic to fix something on your Lamborghini. Respectfully, would you hire just any mechanic, someone who you had no idea of their experience or qualifications? Yes or no. Next, suppose you were looking for someone to refinish/restore a $15,000 12-seat 19th century oak dining room table. Who would you hire?

Let's say you are the Texas Longhorns or the Alabama Crimson Tide and you need a head football coach (neither school has an opening right now) where would you turn? Really, are you opting for someone who has never been a college head coach?

Now on to our Dept. of Education. The largest block of schools in America, K-12, that the Dept. of Ed. works with are our neighborhood public schools. Who are you turning to in order to run the Dept. of Education which oversees our neighborhood schools? I would want someone who has had a real connection to our traditional neighborhood schools...not necessarily, solely, but that would be an important component.

Where are we with Ms. DeVos?
