Obama is touting the 7 million sign up because it is all about him and the next election. Obama has never really governed but has only campaigned. On Charter Schools Michael talks about how they are getting a bad rap from detractors and teachers unions. The left just can’t accept that Charters are doing better without unionized teachers. The Charter movement is an experiment that is working and should be embraced.
