Yes, LeBron will jump on that six-figure salary to be Secretary of Education, rather than earn multi-millions as a basketball player and businessman. Don’t miss out of this great deal, LeBron!

“creating the I Promise School for 240 third- and fourth-graders”

THIS IS A TOTAL LIE!!!!

He is paying for some extras but this is a public school, funded by taxpayers money. The breakfasts and lunches are paid for by our government hand out programs.

James does pay for some extras but he damned well did not create this school and he does not pay for it.

THAT IS A TOTAL LIE!!!

He attended a private Catholic school in Akron (St. Vincent/St. Mary), but Wikipedia does not say if he graduated (interestingly enough). He was apparently discovered by the NBA while playing for their basketball team.

I guess he was luckier than most, having been born to a 16-year-old single mother and never seeing his career criminal father. His mother had him move in with a local youth football coach by the name of Frank Walker; no other circumstances are given.

This is the culture that has schoolchildren being made to sing hymns to Barack Obama. They’re still very Soviet in outlook.

Well, a woman who slept her way into politics would do anything with power.

I’m thinking he might, if he works really hard and studies day and night for years, he might qualify to be a Porta Potti cleaner. Then in 15 or 20 years he might be eligible for a low level supervisory position of maybe one new guy. Hey! It could happen; I know we have our doubts but miracles do happen.

“let him spend his own money on this “school” first “

LOL! Most of the cash comes from the middle class tax payers and he throws his name all over it.

He didn’t build this. (And he actually didn’t)

The stupid are easily to manipulate. The Rat’s discovered this years ago. It’s a big percentage of their base!

It would be much cheaper to just close all the schools and give everyone a high school diploma.

When I first heard of this I thought what a nice thing until I learned that the taxpayers are getting the bill. Heck, I could do that too as long as someone else pays for it.

The Miss Lemon School of Deplorables. Has a nice ring don’t you think?

LeBron graduated from a good Catholic school in Akron. He’s not stupid, just doesn’t think much before he mouths off. Like most democrats and left wingers, he believes the spew they feed him, and trusts people who lie to him.

0.000053304% of the USA population (estimated 2018) signs a petition to give someone the job of Secretary of Education...

Well, that’s good enough for me.
