Next week will mark a historical point in American history. The first black president will be sworn into office. Two to four million people are expected to travel to D.C. to witness Obama being sworn in. I am floored by the fact that only half a century ago America was only beginning to witness the birth of the Civil Rights movement and that in just over a week we will have a black president. Yet, some people do not share this feelings, one of them being a student I work with.

This is an excerpt from a conversation the class was having while discussing what a duel was.

Mr. R: Do you know that one of our presidents was once in a duel?

A: Was it Obama?

Mr. R: No A, it was not.

A: Too bad.

Such an open minded child.
