President Obama's speech to our students was outstanding!
The main points,

" No excuse for not trying.
Let your failures teach you.
Don't be afraid to ask for help.
Don't ever give up on yourself.
Don't let yourself down."

President Barack Obama -Sept. 8, 2009.

I hope every student has a chance to see this!

I actually feel sorry for those kids!

Maybe they can tune in to a repeat of the speech.
It will get them thinking-
WTH? Why are my parents opposed to THIS?!
Critical thinking going on here.

7. I can't imagine why any parent wouldn't want his/her child to see it.....
Hell, any parent who doesn't want his/her child to see that isn't fit to be a parent!
