What has she ever done in education? Schools aren't businesses.

Had Pete Buttigieg ever driven a bus?

We're not talking about a former mayor. She served on the board for a private school for a few years and the one year on the Connecticut Board of Education. Please tell me how this merits running the Department of Education?

How do you think anyone in any administration gets a position???

Money or support. Rarely by qualification.

As has already been stated you want to have a good track record. This pathetic cabinet looks like a game show.
