My latest article is in The Huffington Post<\/em>. It’s called, “Who Elected Bill Gates?<\/a>”<\/p>\n

The article is dense, but that was required to support my my indictment of his dangerous\u00a0 influence and educational cockamamie schemes. I was thrilled when my article appeared originally\u00a0 below one by Bill Gates and above an entry by his former deputy, Tom VanderArk, on the Education page of The Huffington Post.<\/em><\/p>\n
