Why am I crying after looking at that video of Miss South Carolina?

You are crying because our poor education system that has failed so many of the "yoots" of America and indoctrinated them into the leftist agenda.

Michael Gordon has some reasonably thoughtful comments. At least he appears to be using his brain.

My cousin just graduated from high school this past June. She wanted to attend a technical school that required passing an entrance exam. My brother tutored her and was stunned how little mathematics she knew. Fortunately my brother was able to teach her enough that she passed the test. He was quite upset that he had to do the job our local public high school was supposed to have done.

I went to an Ice Show last night headlining Kimmie Meissner, (World Champion in 2006 and Maryland resident) who is the same age as that airhead beauty contestant. Kimmie was terrific as she introduced the other skaters, charmed the audience and generally was responsible for an excellent night’s entertainment, besides skating three routines and the opening and closing ensemble numbers.

The show was for the benefit of families of children with cancer, a group with which Kimmie has been closely involved, besides doing her training and her studies.

What a contrast!
