It was the first day of a school in the USA and a new Indian student named Chandrasekhar Subramanian entered the fourth grade.
The teacher said, "Let'sbegin by reviewing some American History. Who said 'Give me Liberty , orgive me Death'?"
She saw asea of blank faces, except for Chandrasekhar, who had his hand up: 'PatrickHenry, 1775' he said. 'Very good!'
Who said'Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perishfromthe Earth?'
Again, no response except from Chandrasekhar. 'Abraham Lincoln, 1863' saidChandrasekhar.
The teachersnapped 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 aloud whisper: 'Fuck the Indians,'
'Who saidthat?' she demanded.
Chandrasekhar put his hand up. 'GeneralCuster, 1862.' At thatpoint, a student in the back said, 'I'm gonna puke.'
The teacher glares around and asks 'All right! Now, who said that?'
Again, Chandrasekharsays, 'George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991.
' Now furious,another student yells, 'Oh yeah? Suck this!'
Chandrasekharjumps out of his chair wavinghis hand and shouts to the teacher , 'Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!'
Now withalmost mob hysteria someone said 'You little shit. If you say anythingelse,I'll kill you.'
Chandrasekhar frantically yells at the top of his voice, ' Michael Jackson to the childwitnesses testifying against him- 2004.'
The teacher fainted. and as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, 'Oh shit,we'rescrewed!'
and Chandrasekhar said quietlly, "I think it was the American people, November4, 2008."
