Talk politics.

The truth is, I wasn't the smartest kid in school.  In fact, I found myself struggling at times in certain subjects.....especially in math. I HATED MATH!  There was no other class I dreaded going to more than my high school math class.  From Geometry to Algebra to Calculus, math was the one subject that I had the hardest time with and failed on a consistant basis.  Now it's true that I probably could have paid more attention in math class, but honestly I just wasn't that interested in numbers.  I didn't think I would ever need to use a lot of math in my lifetime, because I knew I wasn't ever going to become a doctor or a scientist.  Those guys are smart......REALLY smart.  They did well in math and science in school, because those are the kind of careers that require you to know your numbers and stats.  They have to get those numbers and stats right every time.  And they have to test out those numbers and stats over and over and over again until they can prove to everyone that what they are telling you is a proven fact.  And it is supposed to be binding and non-arguementative.......and STUBBORN as all hell to disprove.....

....but then Barack Obama became the first African American President.

And facts became null and void across the country.
