I happened to catch it on CNN as I don't turn it on much anymore, so I was lucky to catch it live.

Give me this one child over all the word twisters who see themselves as presribers of hubris. She asks for something very basic. She asks that the adults of the world step up. Will they hear?

Thank you for the post. I had not seen this and am grateful that you put up this clip. She really is great. Not sure the guys behind her were engaged in listening as phones and paperwork seems to occupy them. ha ha We are not a listening culture.

I am moved to look into local education.

And your kitten with the bowl of milk is adorable!
