Our Roving billboard in Columbia SC today
I've been quiet recently because work has overtaken my life. We launched a huge campaign today and it's been great to see the many hours of brainstorming and late nights come to fruition. ED in 08 is real today! "Ed" was born in front of my eyes about 2 months ago and now he's visible through hundreds of thousands of dollars in online media that I've placed, along with millions of dollars in tv and print..all for the largest single issue-focused campaign initiative in campaigning history. 60 million dollars thanks to Bill and Melinda Gates and The Broad Foundation is going to go along way to help reshape Americans thoughts on education and energize a non-partisan constituency.

For those of you who don't have kids, get involved. One of the push button issues they are championing is year-round schooling. So think about your summer vacation sans screaming kids. Hows that for motivation?

"PLEASE,PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE"...TO QUOTE THE LATE GREAT JAMES BROWN...PLEASE EDUCATE THE CHILDREN AND DON'T TEACH TO THE TESTS.
IF CHILDREN ARE PROPERLY EDUCATED THE TEST RESULTS WILL TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES.
BY THE WAY, I AM A SCHOOL BOARD VETERAN AND PREACHED THIS SAME MESSAGE YEARS AGO.
