The fact that his peers voted for him, and saw him for what he represented and not his past really says a lot.

What makes a parent think just b/c his/her child is getting good grades that they are not getting into trouble? There are plenty of straight A students out there getting into serious stuff ( Iwent to school with them). The only difference is they do not get caught, or their parents are in denial.
