I still hope there will be some follow up on 4300 Goodfellow. Not only did these outstate republicans and republocrats disenfranchise the voters of st. louis, they-----for the first time in the history of Missouri----decided to sponsor their own Charter school, not subject to their own qualifications, which has been outsourced to TexasCan--------4300 Goodfellow. Please visit, observe, and report. Maybe it is great.

Not that this is a big deal. But...I believe Mr. Sullivan lives in Frontenac, not Chesterfield. If he lived in Chesterfield, Sen. Bray would not be the one to sponsor Sullivan's nomination.

Sullivan's business, McBride & Son Homes, is based in Chesterfield.
