I'll be interested to see what he actually says, but if he's not including politicians and the education system in his appeals for more diversity in tech then he really isn't addressing the heart of the issue. Very few politicians can claim coverage on this issue as they have been completely inept over the past 30 years in making sure that our education system is equitable.
Washington State, in particular, has a terrible education system. The differential in teacher salaries in that state is appalling, with local property taxes making up an insane amount of most school districts' budgets (much more than most states). In fact their State Supreme Court is currently holding the legislature in contempt for under-funding the school system.
