Was he reading from a prepared speech, or was this him babbling off the cuff? And if it was a prepared speech, is it just that he's illiterate or did the speech writer fuck up?

Regardless of whether it was him or the speech writer, ain't no way that the president should have let something like that slip out of his lips. Sheeeeeesh. Maybe they just teach a slightly different world history in Texas schools than they do anywhere else.

Nah. They're too busy learning Texas history to bother with the rest of the world.

i'm pretty sure that the speech-writer probably wrote "last half-century." so not only does he have no concept of world history, he also cannot read.

they know better than to let him speak off the cuff, i'm sure, given how bad things turn out even when they pre-write things for him. sheesh!
