Obama’s Wesleyan Commencement Speech

I’m glad to see that Obama’s campaign of hope and optimism continues undaunted. In this speech he emphasizes the importance of education and diplomacy to this nation’s future. As a parent, his stances on education, both present and future, resonate with me at my very core. ON the other hand, as a Foreign Service brat, I’ve seen the power of diplomacy that lies at this nation’s disposal. To hear Obama discuss plans to restore the Foreign Service to its former glory is really a new facet of his campaign to me, and I gotta say it just strengthens his candidacy that much more for me.

    I haven’t been so inspired by any politician until this election. It’s kind of sad that every talks about his lack of experience. Look where “experience” has gotten us. I’m all for Obama and his lack of experience. I think it’s just what we need right now. Nice post!
