   “Is he running for governor?”

   Let’s hope he is running for TN governor.

     TN? Not a chance. The Republican connected to the Haslam machine already have their candidate primed.

   “Some employees of Ohio’s largest charter school are raising alarms that the administration is requiring them to attend a Statehouse rally Tuesday.

   Rick Teeters, superintendent of the online Electronic Classroom of Tomorrow, has sent multiple emails to employees telling them that attendance is required at a Statehouse demonstration and march to the nearby Downtown headquarters of the Ohio Department of Education.

   ECOT employees contacted The Dispatch to express frustration with the edict.

   “It’s taking us away from our students. What are the students going to be doing?” said one teacher, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of losing her job.

   “I care about my students, and I care about being taken out of my classroom,” she said. “But also, how can a company require its employees to support them politically? We live in a country where your political opinion is supposed to be your own.”

   The rally is part of ECOT’s ongoing marketing and lobbying efforts, which have included television and radio ads, social media, calls to lawmakers, campaign donations from school founder Bill Lager, and a website that portrays some critics negatively.”

     Kucinich ran for president in 2008 and was ridiculed by the national media and inside operatives from both political parties as a kook and a flake. He is of course, neither.

       That’s the way the plutocrat-owned media labels those politicians who want to fetter predatory free markets .

       He certaily isn’t a cooke. He sounds very knowledgeable about the whole public school debate. He starts out quiet, but as he goes along with his reading, his voice heats up. I am sure he’ll get a position in the next president’s cabinet.
