Charlie Sykes formally endorses Fernandez

Charlie Sykes formerly announced his endorsement today of Rose Fernandez for State Superintendent for the Department of Public Instruction. He includes a link to his on-air remarks supporting Fernandez the other day.
Rose Fernandez is exactly the kind of person we need. She doesn't represent the teachers' union; she's willing to take on the teachers' union. She's not part of the establishment; she's willing to challenge the establishment. She is not an educational bureaucrat. She thinks that the system should work for students, what a radical concept. Rose Fernandez is the only one in this race who thinks the schools ought to be about the kids.

Sykes also links to newspaper columns by me and Owen Robinson supporting her candidacy.
