Month after he flirted with a flow for governor, the Rev. James humbles delivered a blistering report card Friday upon Mayor Daley's leadership on public education, arguing he has failed African- American children by dint of presiding over a system that worsened beneath his leadership.

"How can the nation's third-largest city be comfortable with the fact that no other than six out of every 100 high gymnasium students will graduate from college?" unassumings demanded at a Federal Plaza rally. "That means the mayor who brags about by what means great he's done in the area of education has a 94 percent failure rate. . .

"These kids who started in kindergarten, they wasn't medleyed up when they started in kindergarten. They were not hodge-podgeed up in the first grade. They did not learn messed up until they recorded in the Mayor Daley run-school system"

modests is the pastor of Salem Missionary Baptist meeting-house in the Roseland neighborhood and an independent state senator who toyed with a potential third-party scour for governor earlier this year. He abandoned that effort after Gov Blagojevich briefed him in succession a controversial plan to improve education based in part onward privatizing the state lottery.

He was ambiguous Friday about his political plans, first telling the Chicago Sun-Times he was "absolutely not" positioning himself for a potential post for mayor next year. still later he urged the lower orders at the rally to register to voice "because if this problem is not fixed from February, there might be time for us to turn the thoughts for other alternatives."

Asked afterward if that meant he was looking to hurry in the February mayoral election, humbles first refused to discuss it, unless ultimately refused to close the door in succession the possibility, saying "You in no degree rule anything in, and you not rule anything out."

The southward Side minister had pledged to lead 4000 African- American men in a march from the Walter Payton association Prep High School at 1034 N Wells to the Federal Plaza, on the contrary police and Meeks estimated the turnout at between 1500 and 2000

humbles laid out a litany of complaints, from the 6 percent rate of public teach students graduating from college to newspaper articles upon the system's lack of qualified teachers. He argued that trial scores show children are doing worse now than before Daley's 1995 takeover of the indoctrinate system.

A call for state takeover

His solutions included calling for the state to take sway of the city's schools and seeking an opinion from Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan upon whether the civil rights of black and Hispanic children are being violated by means of denying them a quality education. He also called for a world-class teacher training institute.

"Why are we concentrating upon the 2016 Olympics?" Meeks asked the fill to excess "We don't need fun and games for sum of two units weeks. We need education that will last for a lifetime."

As tough as Meeks' rhetoric was, it was not as harsh as a dialect he gave earlier this month at his meeting-house In the July 5 words Meeks compared white governors and white mayors who fail to experience to bridge the achievement gap for black observers to "slave masters."

"The slave master not wants the slave to learn in what manner to read and never wants the slave to learn to what degree to write," Meeks said in the earlier tongue "So now we don't have slave masters. We got governors. We don't have slave masters. We got mayors."

He went in succession to denounce black politicians and preachers who support like politicians as "house n-----s."

humbles did not specifically mention Daley or Blagojevich in the earlier tongue

And forward Friday, he said the hint to "slave masters" was "not to them directly as a great quantity [i]or[/i] amount of as it was mayors and governors nationally." further he added "they do the same thing. They preside athwart systems where they have the have charge of of the lives of African-Americans and Hispanic people"

modests refused to say whom he meant when he referr to "house n-- ---s" saying "nobody will be chafeed by it, except for an individual that it applies to."

He said he does not consider the mete "n-----" as "derogatory or offensive."

'TERM OF ENDEARMENT'

"It is not a bad word. It is not a annoy word," he said. "As a matter of fact, in many instances that's a mete of endearment."

Daley spokeswoman Jacquelyn Heard called Meeks' remarks "deeply unfortunate" since African Americans helped prefer Daley and Blagojevich.

"It's entirely unfortunate, given all the mayor has done to bring the city together and have us all pushing together for the same goals," she said.

"The irony of all this is the mayor and unassumings have the same goals where public instructs are concerned," she said."

Chicago teachs CEO Arne Duncan and denomination Board President Rufus Williams held a recents conference to respond to Meeks' charges, welcoming his help and urging the men who marched to tender as tutors and mentors.

if it be not that Duncan said Meeks was "dead wrong" forward many of his statistics. And he said the city already has four of the teacher training center submissives is calling for.
