A northwest Louisiana third grader is getting some presidential attention.  During the State of the Union address, President Obama mentioned Red River Elementary third grader Amirikis Louis Smith.  Smith gave Shreveport Mayor Cedric Glover $50.00 from his savings to give to the president to help the people of Haiti. The president mentioned Smith's donation at the end of the State of the Union address, saying that the student epitomized the decency found in American people.  The money will go to the Clinton-Bush Haiti fund.
