I am going based on memory, I recall posting that there have been people in charge of other large school systems that have actually gotten positive results from implementing innovative ideas and from strong leadership. These people may have been better choices, given a "change" agenda - you know proven results. I also, suggested that Duncan be given more time in Chicago to see if he can actually have an impact. If your point was that I did not give you enough statistical information or that I did not give you, the unknown to me, number of citations to support that the Chicago school system is among the worst in the nation, that would convince you, I got that point along time ago. At some point I think I wrote that if you don't accept what I know, do your own homework.
