Teddy Roosevelt was the first president to leave the continental U.S. It's too bad he wasn't also the last.

Politicians and celebrities with an urge to see black poverty only need to visit the Mississippi Delta or some of the neighborhoods in American cities. If they yearn for more exotic poverty, all they have to do is visit the Indian reservations that do not have casinos. Any disease they are hot to trot to cure can be found right here in the good old U.S.A.

When we were sending our four children to grade school, our major concerns were ensuring they learned what they needed to know and didn't lose their lunch boxes, book bags or mittens in the process. These days, parents have to worry about their youngsters learning anything of value while risking the loss of their lives, their virginity or both.
