The media keeps throwing oppo dirt nothingburgers at Perdue, who wants to be the next chancellor of Georgia's university system. They underestimate him.
You called it. Sonny Perdue does not have the liberal credentials expected of those in the education hierarchy. I've thought for several years now that Board of Regents appointments and the hiring of university system officials should get more attention in gubernatorial campaigns. You know there is no leadership when the Board has to hire search firms to pick the candidates.
And, Tom Price was not nearly as scandalous as he was made out to be. When I knew him he was very conscientious but was just out of medical school. Like a number of wealthy people he should have been more careful about spending. Ben Carson, a really good man in my opinion, had similar problems with the optics of spending taxpayer money.
