Clapping - The Obama Way!!!

This message was forwarded to me by a well meaning friend & I decided to share it with you all...
America doesn't have an educational crisis if it can produce sharp kids like this.
US President Barack Obama, on a recent visit to a rural elementary school in South Carolina, asked the children for total silence.
He then started to slowly clap his hands once every few seconds, while holding the young audience in total silence.
Then he said into the microphone "Children, every time I clap my hands, a child in America dies from Gun Violence".
Then, little Darrell, with a proud South Carolina drawl, pierced the quiet and said…
"Well Mr. President, why don’t you stop clapping"!!!

PS: The spontaneous response of this child is overwhelming
