>unknown said:it was the first day of a school in USA and a new Indian student named Chandrasekhar Subramanian entered the fourth grade.
>
> The teacher said,
>
> "Let's begin by reviewing some American History. Who said 'Give me Liberty , or give me Death'?"
>
> She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Chandrasekhar, who had his hand up: 'Patrick Henry, 1775' he said.
>
> 'Very good!'
>
> Who said 'Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth?'
>
> Again, no response except from Chandrasekhar. 'Abraham Lincoln, 1863' said Chandrasekhar.
>
> The teacher snapped at the class, 'Class, you should be ashamed. Chandrasekhar, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do.'
>
> She heard a loud whisper: 'F*ck the Indians,'
>
> 'Who said that?' she demanded. Chandrasekhar put his hand up.
>
> 'General Custer, 1862.'
>
> At that point, a student in the back said, 'I'm gonna puke.'
>
> The teacher glares around and asks 'All right! Now, who said that?'
>
> Again, Chandrasekhar says, 'George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991.'
>
> Now furious, another student yells, 'Oh yeah? Suck this!'
>
> Chandrasekhar jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher , 'Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!'
>
> Now with almost mob hysteria someone said 'You little shit. If you say anything else, I'll kill you.'
>
> Chandrasekhar frantically yells at the top of his voice, ' Michael Jackson to the child witnesses testifying against him- 2004.'
>
> The teacher fainted.
>
> And as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, 'Oh shit, we're screwed!'
>
> And Chandrasekhar said quietlly, "I think it was the American people, November 4, 2008 ."
