I subbed today for a history teacher. I bored a lot of kids today by reading from the history book. We learned about Washington and the forefathers starting everything from scratch after the war. The textbook mentioned twice the debate over who should be able to hold positions in the government. Should wealthy, educated landowners only be allowed? Should common less educated farmer types be allowed? I wonder at the education levels currently held on Wall Street, Obama's Cabinet, and major CEO's. Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar. Clearly education in no way guarantees wise decisions. The art work is from a very talented student.
