Ethan pursed his lips together slightly as class began. This lesson was about elections and voting? That was one subject the sixth year knew very little about.. mainly because he had almost no interest in it. Sure, he knew he should care about politics since they affected life as he knew it.. but the whole concept seemed so very dull.

He listened to all the other answers and jotted down a few notes and doodles. A few of them sounded vaguely familiar.. but most not. The Ravenclaw stole a glance at Minerva as she gave her answer. He didn't know who that guy was.. probably a Muggle American.. but her answer sounded really smart. He didn't know of any that were exceptional or even stood out a little, so Ethan chose not to offer anything just yet. Instead he kept his quill to his parchment.
