7th grade was wonderful for me. I remember coming to class in the morning and before fist hour began, the morning announcements would bellow over the speaker system. In the 7th grade, I knew I was a conservative. One morning I cheered when the principal announced that Ronald Reagan was the new President of the United States of America.
How sad this young man must be hearing a teacher ask him what Obama would think of him because he was being a kid and slouching in his chair. Too bad this young man did not have the opportunity to witness the magic which was Reagan and to see how a real leader reacts under pressure. What a shame for a teacher to use a communist pig as a positive role model for a young man.
When I was in 7th grade the election was between Nixon and McGovern - given what was happening then, and the fact my parents were Democrats, I ignorantly believed McGovern was the best candidate. Thankfully he lost. My first presidential election after turning 18 (1977) was Reagan v Carter - no contest on who to vote for there. I became a Conservative upon turning 18 and have voted that way since.
if my 7th grade included a fist hour, i wouldn’t think it was wonderful...
sounds dreadful.
i hope it didn’t leave a mark.
