No big loss

Bill Clinton is visiting a school. In one class, he asks the students if anyone can give an example of a "tragedy." One little boy stands up and says, "If my friend is playing and a car came by and killed him, that would be a tragedy."
"No," Bill says, "That would be an ACCIDENT."
A girl raises her hand. "If a bus carrying 50 kids drove off a cliff...that would be a tragedy."
"I'm afraid not," explains Bill. "That is what we would call a GREAT LOSS.".
"What?" asks Bill, "Isn't there anyone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?"
Finally a boy in the back raises his hand. He says: "If an airplane carrying Bill and Hillary Clinton was blown up, would be a tragedy."
"Wonderful!" Clinton beams. "And can you tell me WHY that would be a tragedy?"
"Well," says the boy, "because it wouldn't be an accident, and would be no great loss!"
