Take that, Kaepernick

Teen-age (Hispanic) high school volleyball player sings the national anthem when the school's audio system fails.

Maybe there's hope for this country after all (if the Democrats haven't totally rigged the election already)

That's nice and all, I'm just confused as to why this is national news. Maybe it's because I grew up in a small town,we never used a recording for the national anthem in the first place, and the volleyball players were just as likely to also be choir members or band members anyway.

(Hell, I played football, and when I was JV I played with the pep band when the Varsity was on the field).
