It was the first day of school 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,
Gettysburg - 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: 'Screw 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, now we're screwed!'
And Chandrasekhar said quietly, 'I think it was the American people,
November 4th, 2008"
Chandrasekhar later became King & changed
