"R's for L's" joke

In 5th grade we had a new kid in the class, Mei Chung, from China. The teacher explained he knew no English but was learning fast. She told us that he'd have trouble with the sound of the letter L and said he'd sound like he was saying the letter R. He was likeable and did okay. I was thinking of Mei Chung recently. Figured he must be an engineer, and I couldn't help but wonder how he spoke of Obama's election.
