Welcome to my Blog

After months of putting it off, I finally decided to join the blogosphere.

I'll be chiming in regularly on issues of education and politics, mostly Oregon-related, but not always. Your comments are invited and appreciated, especially if your views differ from mine.

I am an education reformer in Oregon, a critic of the education establishment groups who control Oregon's schools, and a political commentator on the Oregon beat. I have a monthly column in BrainstormNW magazine (www.brainstormNW.com) and a weekly talk show on the #1 rated talk radio station in Portland (www.kxl.com/personalities.aspx?ID=56&SecID=13.)

In 2002 I ran for State Superintendent of Public Instruction, finishing second to current Superintendent Susan Castillo in a three way race.

I spend my days running my education-reform non-profit organization, which is active in the charter school movement and also advocates for common sense changes to Oregon school legislation. (www.oregoneducation.org)

I hope you enjoy this blog, and weigh in often.
