This story has been posted on MSNBC but in their article they paint this 16 year old to be a kook and naive. They miss his eloquence. It is must read for all Americans, esp for those who have come to this country from other countries to experience the good life.

I am very impressed by this young man's ability to write and put into words what should be in the hearts and minds of all of us.

Compare this with the drivel from Code Pinko's agenda for '06..........

I noted the same thing... CNN also has their version of his adventure. They don't mention that he is a member of the republican student group.

My nephew in Texas went to the only inter-political student group at this school. He and his friend were the only republicans. Most of the student claimed to be socialists and democrats...

Let's wait until they have to pay taxes to breathe.

Wow - pretty mature views for a teenager. More power to him!

WOW! Hope a good blog picks him up quick!

Naive, probably so. He could have been a target for kidnapping or killing in a heartbeat. Insensitive as well; his actions made his parents frantic. On the other hand, he appears to know right from wrong and was willing to back up his beliefs with action. I've got to respect that!

His essay should be required reading for all teenagers.

If he had come back bashing the war effort, I'm sure they'd be praising him as a mature young man who will go far in this world.
