   Dr. Ravitch:

   Here is the musical link to say my belated Happy Valentine Day to you and all of 17 Millions viewers in your website.

   Magnet And Steel – Walter Egan

   LYRICS: … Now I told you so you ought to know
   Ooh, it takes some time for a feelin’ to grow
   Ooh, you’re so close now I can’t let you go
   Ooh, and I can’t let go

   With you I’m not shy to show the way I feel
   With you I might try my secrets to reveal
   For you are a magnet and I am steel

   I can’t hope that I’ll hold you for long
   Ooh, you’re a woman who’s lost to your song
   Ooh, but the love that I feel is so strong
   Ooh, and it can’t be wrong

   With you I’m not shy to show the way I feel
   With you I might try my secrets to reveal
   For you are a magnet and I am steel

   Ooh…ooh…ooh

   With you I’m not shy to show the way I feel
   With you I might try my secrets to reveal
   For you are a magnet and I am steel
   For you are a magnet and I am steel
   For you are a magnet and I am steel

   Dr. Ravitch, your INTEGRITY and LOVE in bringing an awareness of DEMOCRACY as the backbone in American Public Education is THE MAGNET, your 17 millions viewers and supporters’ MIND, whether they are veteran or minted educators or all American parents is the STEEL.

   Our mind is attracted by your love like magnet and steel. I hope that I have shown you the way I feel, and I have also revealed my secret of my strong support for HUMANITY at the cost of my life twice in shipwrecks.

   Here are more links from New York Time that exposed everything I wanted to write about which can be summed in one sentence [as from] Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg said on his weekly radio program in 2013, shortly before leaving office:

   “If we could get every billionaire around the world to move here, it would be a godsend.”, [regardless of TRANSPARENCY of the source of money.]

   Another sentence:

   ““That’s the joy of the condos,” said Julie Maxey-Allison, an agent for Brown Harris Stevens. “That’s why the L.L.C.s buy them. It’s a way foreigners can do whatever they want here.”

   Part one (Sunday, Feb 8, 2015)

   TOWERS OF SECRECY
   Stream of Foreign Wealth Flows to Elite NEW YORK Real Estate
   By: Louise Story and Stephanie Saul

   Part 2 in series of 8 (Tues, Feb10, 2015)

   Well-Connected at Home, a Young Malaysian Invests in New York

   Another important sentence:

   It was all about making connections, making friends. Success, he told The Star, is “attributable to being at the right place and right time and meeting the right people coupled with a trusting relationship.” [ his friends are Malaysian prince, a Kuwaiti sheikh and a friend from the United Arab Emirates who went on to become ambassador to the United States and Mexico, the sultan of Terengganu, who was also Malaysia’s king under the nation’s rotating monarchy and the stepfather of his friend Mr. Aziz became PRIME MINISTER Najib Razak of Malaysia]

   Part 3
   The Besieged Indian Builder
   (since I did not pay to subscribe to NYT, I cannot follow the series of corruption from the power and MBA graduate from the IVY schools)

   In conclusion, I sincerely hope that all supporters in Chicago conference will focus on PREVENTION of this message:

   “It’s a way foreigners can do whatever they want here.”

   In our PUBLIC EDUCATION, the word “foreigners” is replaced by “PEARSON, and Billionaire CLUB”

   This will be the only time that public can show its power in the mass through AGREEMENT and 100%+ support Dr. Ravitch’s decision making in shaking up or persuading with ZERO TOLERANCE of intrusive and harmful TESTING SCHEME to
   K-12.

   Happy Lunar New Year of GOAT to Dr. Ravitch and all viewers with my best wishes to
   the success in Chicago Conference. May
