Today in class we talked about the presidential race. The kids were just beyond apathetic, as in, “Why do we have to learn about this stuff”, except for a couple who are pretty pro Obama. However, as we started talking about the different candidates and their platforms, they became more interested. Then the inevitable question came up.

“Miss, what is the difference between a Republican and a Democrat?”

I resisted the urge to say, “Hell if I know”, and blathered something about evolution, abortion and the environment. It’s getting really difficult to explain this stuff.
