I guess in light of all that had been going on in the past 2 years one should not be surprised to read a story like this:

Mississippi Middle School Segregates Student Government Officers: Only Whites Can Run For President

But I am.
I am surprised that in 2010 something like this could be passed out to students..or in 2009 or in 2000 or in 1990.
