[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m voting for White because Bowser had made it clear she DNGAF about schools and I have kids in DCPS. When I’ve brought issues to White’s attention, he at least acted like he got it and cared. Under Bowser, Walls got watered down. Wilson got watered down. And the Capitol Hill middle high school situation continued its dysfunction. Bowser had a lot of time to make schools in the city more academically rigorous and she chose to do the opposite. [/quote] Wow. You sound so deeply misinformed. Um, everything you’re complaining about would be far, far worse under white. [/quote] I completely understand where White stands. At least he’s honest about it. Plus he’s in favor of eliminating mayoral control of schools so is possible we can get a school board elected that doesn’t advocate for these dumb things. Bowser is ALREADY watering standards down AND she wants to retain control of the schools. Lesser of two evils. [b]Plus I’ve met White a few times and he seems thoughtful and like he genuinely cares about the city.[/b] Bowser only cares about Bowser. [/quote] I bet you think strippers are really into you too. It's politicians' jobs to make you like them. Voting for White because you're concerned about watered down school standards is like voting for Republicans because you think taxes are too low. It's those on the political left -- people like White -- who are leading the charge to water down school standards. They think it's an equity issue. [/quote]
