Isn’t that crazy how that happens?
Here is the caption from the photo:
Jeanne Matson, center, a fifth-grade teacher at Prospect Elementary in Orange, works with students on their social studies project to built a Native American village in this 2011 file photo. Prospect Elementary had among the county’s strongest improvements on the API in 2011.
Unions, a useless border policy and a Commie cirriculum eventually lead to someone like Obama rising, promising goodies and freebies for a vote.
CA is lost, I live here, but want to move.

Some parts of Orange County are heavily Mexican, such as Santa Ana and Anaheim. Irvine and the areas along the coast are affluent.
