Whitney Tilson is one of 12 Democrats running for Mayor of New York City. He identifies as a "pro-business Democrat" and emphasizes the importance of fostering entrepreneurship and investment. His background includes co-founding Teach For All, running Kase Capital Management, and investing in minority-owned businesses. Tilson's political activism began due to his disillusionment with the Democratic Party's stance on charter schools. He advocates for public school accountability similar to charter schools, aiming to provide quality education for low-income minority children.
I want to be the mayor of entrepreneurship and fostering investment. Too often, I find the rhetoric in the Democratic Party is just sort of demonizing, making money, building wealth, etc., and we shouldn't be.
Isn't the Democratic Party supposed to be fighting for low-income minority kids and giving them a fair shot in life through a good education?
Charter schools are rigorously evaluated.
