Last night, I had the most wonderful conversation with a 13 year old boy about the Constitution. We talked about the three branches of government, the Bill of Rights, The various amendments and what they mean, etc.

I asked him where he learned all of this, as he was so erudite and informed. He answered, “In CIVICS class. It’s my favorite class. And my second favorite class is History. We are learning about WW2 right now.”

This boy is Puerto Rican, and attends a Public Middle School in South Florida.

And yes, he can read cursive.

So, blaming the school system for this idiot on the witness stand is a stretch.

Wow. I have to admit that I’m shocked. Thanks for giving us some hope for the future.
