Frank Biden, who just so happens to be Vice-President Joe Biden’s brother (he told me twice when I met him briefly at Lynn University in Palm Beach County almost two years ago), is selling charter schools. He represents a for-profit chain called Mavericks. The chain makes some big claims. The results are not so impressive. That never stops snake-oil salesmen. No one ever cured lumbago or grew new hair by rubbing in snake oil. But that never changes the pitch of the salesmen.
Name dropping does not impress me! 🙂
