I just read an extensive report on why Dudley was given an A and you an F by two educational reform organizations, billed as Obama related.  They are hardly progressive, according to this article, but wealthy stock brokers and so on... promoting an agenda.  

I am curious as to your approach to educational reform, especially in keeping our poorer children in school and graduating from high school, your response to Brad Avakian's proposal concerning more vocational education in high schools and increasing our physical education, arts education and foreign languages in our high schools.

thanks,
