we were shocked in our brief stop in harlem on the way back to see the prejudice against turkey because of various population shifts. i think that if turkey were able to get involved more with the eu its potential for reaching out to afghanistan would be greater. i am not smart enough to know why turkey has -- has any troops in afghanistan or not. that is probably a key decision as to what role they want to play and they may be issuing military involvement feeling that after nato is effected turkey can move in. that is the best i can do on that. thank you very much for all your questions.

look in harlem at the schools there. look at seed schools. charter schools are educating students at high levels and they are giving kids hope. that is why you see lotteries where parents go to get their kids into charter schools. these parents are lining up by the thousands to get their kids into a great charter schools. people who do not like charter schools are people who think they threaten the funding stream for traditional public schools. there would not be a threat if parents were truly satisfied with their public schools. host: here is another one. guest: i completely agree. just because teachers are in unions does not say much about the teachers themselves, other than the fact they are having money, in many cases, automatically and unfairly deducted from their salary. they cannot negotiate for their own salaries. i think teachers are great. we have a lot of wonderful teachers. we increased spending by 216%. educators who are doing a great job are not seeing any of that money. that is not fair. host: "the baltimore sun" shows that the
