A rare peek into the evolution of Hillary Clinton's education platform is afforded through an overlooked Wikileaks-published document. Entitled "Policy Book— FINAL," the PDF file was attached to a 2014 email sent to John Podesta, Clinton’s future campaign chair. The education portion of the document runs 66 pages, mostly concentrated on K-12 policy, and captures specific input from billionaire donors looking to overhaul and privatize public education.
Today, Donald Trump seeks a rapid expansion of charter schools and private school vouchers, while his Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos, touts "school choice" and market competition for public school at every stop. But in private, Hillary Clinton's donors, dubbed "experts," also sought rapid charter expansion and market-based options to replace public schools.

In previous speeches, Clinton campaign manager John Podesta indicated that recruiting and grooming younger, more compliant teachers was the plan to overcome resistance to corporate education reform over the long term. But in the policy book, Bruce Reed also sets his sights on teaching colleges, claiming "they don’t deliver the goods." Powell Jobs suggests letting principals "pick their teams," making teachers individually negotiate salary (every teacher—really?), expanding online education offerings like Khan Academy and making teaching universities "truly selective like TFA and Finland." This comment is perplexing because while Finland has demanding teacher vetting and training, Teach for America places inexperienced teachers in classrooms after a seven-week summer crash course.
