Little Alkio



> Little Akio ! ! !
>
> The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American History. Who said 'Give me Liberty , or give me Death'?"
>
> She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Little Akio, a bright foreign exchange student from Japan , who had his hand up: "Patrick Henry, 1775," he said.
>
> "Very good! -- Who said, 'Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth'?"
>
> Again, no response except from Little Akio: "Abraham Lincoln, 1863."
>
> "Excellent!" said the teacher continuing, "Let's try one a bit more difficult -- Who said, 'Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country'?"
>
> Once again, Akio's was the only hand in the air and he said: "John F. Kennedy, 1961.
>
> The teacher snapped at the class, "Class, you should be ashamed of yourselves, Little Akio isn't from this country and he knows more about our history than you do."
>
> She heard a loud whisper: "F_ _ k the Japs."
>
> "Who said that? -- I want to know right now!? she angrily demanded.
>
> Little Akio put his hand up, "General MacArthur, 1945."
>
> At that point, a student in the back said, "I'm gonna puke.'

> The teacher glares around and asks, 'All right! -- Now who said that?"

> Again, Little Akio says, "George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991."
>
> Now furious, another student yells, "Oh yeah? -- Suck this!"
>
> Little Akio jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher, "Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!"
>
> Now with almost mob hysteria someone said, "You little shit! -- If you say anything else -- I'll kill you!"
>
> Little Akio frantically yells at the top of his voice, "Michael Jackson to the children testifying against him, 2004."
>
> The teacher fainted. As the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, "Oh shit, We're screwed!"
>
> Little Akio said quietly, "The American people, November 6, 2012."
