Cenk Uygur: Howard Dean for Education Secretary

I was hoping that he would head up a progressive think tank. We need some organization and Dean could provide it.
Dr. Dean is due a position at the table. President Elect Obama wants to take information from the best and brightest. Keeping Howard Dean out of the loop will not serve this country. He gets how this country operates and how our lower d- democratic values need to be resurrected, especially in the times we face over the next several years. I'm pretty sure the Rahmenator understands that. Dean is essential to our rebirthing of this democracy.
Howard Dean for the cabinet, absolutely!
This is ridiculous and insulting to professional educators who have made the real progress and worked toward actual education reform in America. Howard Dean may be owed a favor, but he's a physician, not an educator. Look at Linda Darling-Hammond, Deborah Meier or countless other real educators. Again we see how even progressives regard this profession and the lack of attention to or understanding of what's actually needed and works for the success of our youth.
