Check out this video from the Civitas Institute, showing conservative businessman and former NC lawmaker Art Pope debating education and money in politics with a group of protesters.
The Money Quote from Pope
While comparing the amount of money liberal foundations spend on elections with the amount his foundation spends on elections: "They're good, we're bad, I understand your perspective."
The Money Quote from protester
After hearing the comparison: "I don't want to talk about their money, I want to talk about your money."
There's also some blubbering about "Why are you trying to destroy public education?" (By supprting PUBLIC charter schools?)
These protesters are demanding Pope resign from a newly-created advisory board to the UNC system. He said he will not. The protesters say THEY should be on the board.
