OK

I am feeling really out it when it comes to news other than the fact that South Korea doesn't like the FTA. Could someone give me a quick over view of the last week of American politics? I heard Clinton dropped out.

Also, it is really humid here, it makes me want to melt.

Clinton has not dropped out. She won a primary in Kentucky last week and is still trying to get delegates from Florida and Michigan seated. She had a little issue this week when she invoked the assination of Robert Kennedy as a reason to continue fighting on.

Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with a brain tumor.

Naw. Hillary is still in it. Yeah, some Koreans don't want the FTA because it's going to kill the farmers. Sometimes the farmers descend on Seoul and fight the riot police. If you see a demonstration, pay it no mind. It's not dangerous. There will be 15,000 riot police for every three demonstrators. I can imagine it's getting humid there, but August is the real bad one. Wooooo boy.

She hasn't dropped out yet, but it seems inevitable.

What's the FTA?
