CONTROVERSY: Arne Duncan As Education Secretary? NO!

From Jack & Jill Politics:

HELL NO.

HELL.NO.

I don’t want to hear any BS about him hiring the most qualified.

Under no circumstances is Arne Duncan the most qualified person for the job. I will not even entertain the argument.

Duncan’s entire career has been nothing but an exercise in White Privilege. There is no Black person, that I have ever seen, get to the levels of this man, without having the BASIC proper credentials.

With all the Black folk who have PhD’s in Education, he chooses Duncan, who has a sociology degree.

A sociology degree.

I didn’t say Masters in Sociology. I didn’t say PhD in Sociology.

He has a damn Bachelors in Sociology.

He is a flunky tool crony choice of King Richard Daley II. He has done nothing for the Chicago Public School system. Not for the children that need it the most.

    I’d rather see Michelle Rhee in this position than some of his Illinois connections or someone who has the honest desire to be the real CHANGE we need in this countries education process. We don’t want or need anymore cowards! This country needs to dismantle it’s present education system and rebuild it from the ground up! Just like he used the grassroots approach in his own campaign he needs to do the same for the American education system! They need REFORM! PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT! STUDENTS BECOMING ACHIEVERS instead of believing and acting as UNDERACHIEVERS! ALL 50 STATES PRACTICING THE SAME STANDARDS OF EXCELLENCE! NO MORE DEVIATIONS! ACCESS TO UNLIMITED FUNDS! PUT ALL CHILDREN FIRST! PUT EDUCATION FIRST INSTEAD OF DEFENSE AND DAMN SPACE EXPLORATION! END THE BUREAUCRACY THAT DETERS CHILDREN FROM RECEIVING A QUALITY EDUCATION!
