The Resume

    (circa 1996- )
    Born in United States
    Resided in Volusia County, Florida
    Attended New Smyrna Beach Middle School in New Smyrna Beach, Florida
    Received media attention after being accused of racism for wearing a shirt to school that promoted <23749>Sarah Palin (October 2008)

Why she might be annoying:

    She wore to school a bright pink t-shirt with the words 'Go Sarah, Go!' and 'McCain/Palin 2008' printed on it.
    Her shirt emphasized a vice- presidential running mate over its Presidential candidate, John McCain.
    Her parents were concerned about possible criticism from others at school regarding a political shirt that promoted conservative candidates.
    She stated that some of her school's students accused her of racism by suggesting that she wanted a Caucasian U.S. President because she herself is Caucasian.
    Her incident caused distractions from her and classmates' regular activities.

Why she might not be annoying:

    Unlike Daxx Dalton, she was well educated about the American government and the political system.
    She received the shirt while volunteering at a local Republican Party headquarters.
    She made her own independent decision to wear the shirt to school, claiming First Amendment free speech rights.
    She told critical students that she was not racist and that her shirt was simply an expression of her political preference of McCain over Barack Obama.
    There were no official complaints made to the school about her shirt, and her family had no issues with the school regarding the incident.
    Her incident inspired some of her friends to wear political shirts to school, which the school system permitted.
