The winds of change are blowing across south Florida. There is a serious move on to challenge the entrenched RATS holding the UTD. If you are a teacher and belong to the UTD in Miami Dade County and you hear of a new slate of "reform" candidates running for the executive board of the UTD....embrace them!! I can tell you without reservation that at least ONE of them and possibly more is a FREEPER!

Should these reformers come to power among their first priorities will be to ensure that the president of the UTD is paid exactly $1.00 more than the highest paid teacher in the county. Further many department heads in the union will either be eliminated or folded into other departments to cut the fat and streamline the organization.

ALSO, the marriage between the union and the Democratic Party has been an unmitigated disaster. This too will change so that the union is seriously (beyond lip service) engaged with both parties to help strengthen the positions of teachers. A lot of left wing liberals are going to cringe at this policy, but it is the only political course that makes sense. Like the blacks in the democratic party and the gunowners in the Republican Party....teachers are taken for granted by their political "spouse" and ignored by the opposition because "their votes are out of reach anyway."

If BOTH political parties realize that we will support those who support US, they'll do more in the way of meaningful outreach and dialogue. This new board will influence curriculum and some of those running are NRA certified Firearms Instructors. There is a possibility that the extreme left wing agenda could straighten out if not veer to the right a bit.

Finally...don't ask me how I know all of this...ssshhhh! It's a secret.
