Schoolhouse Rap! of the Day: “How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore / and a Scotsman, dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot / In the Carribbean, by Providence impoverished, to squalor / Grow up to be a hero and a scholar?”: Tony Award nominated actor Lin-Manuel Miranda (as seen on House) performs “The Hamilton Mixtape” — a rap about Alexander Hamilton from the POV of Aaron Burr — at the White House Evening of Poetry, Music, and the Spoken Word.

I’m pretty sure I’d reblog anything about Lin-Manuel Miranda.
It doesn’t hurt that it’s awesome.
