CPS: 94% Failure Rate

Only 6 of 100 Chicago Public School students go on to get a bachelor's degree by age 25. Barack Obama chose Chicago's school chief Arne Duncan as the new Education Secretary. A product of private schools, University of Chicago's Lab School and Harvard, and hoops games with Barack, Duncan has been in Chicago for 7 years and has presided over a 94% failure rate. As Dan Proft just said on WLS, this is Barack's chummy choice, this is change we can believe in?

Why not an outstanding pick like Michelle Rhee? Or even New York's school chief?

Hack.

P.S. Arne makes classic grammatical error. Michelle. And my friend E. M. Zanotti on Barack Ayers Annenberg Challenge Education Secretary, Arne Duncan. Barack's Dear Leader education come to fruition. Real life intrudes and all that.
