I'm reading the school speech now --it's funny how different it sounds when you know the behind-the-scenes stuff on this guy.
"You'll need the knowldege and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS...."
Or not, once Ezekiel Emanuel's rationing eliminates whole groups of hard-to-treat illnesses from the "health care" menu.
"You'll need the insights and critical thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free."
And these same "skills" that students gain from the modern version of "history" will no doubt aid you in not realizing that the nation's news media are not covering all kinds of embarrassing actions of a certain modern president.
"...[I]f you quit on school, you're not just quitting on yourself, you're quitting on your country."
How will we be able to indoctrinate you in a whole bunch of left-wing propaganda if you absent yourself from our liberals-only-need-apply schools?!
"My father left my family when I was two years old."
And that's why I wrote a "Father's Day" piece for Parade Magazine urging the nation's dads not to be dead-beats. Yeah, nobody told me that Father's Day was designed to CELEBRATE fathers. I just figure that my life is the template of all lives. My dad was a jerk, so yours must be too!

"My wife, First Lady Michelle Obama ...."
My wife, Her Majesty the Queen ....
"Maybe some of you don't have adults in your life who give you the support you need."
As I said, I covered this topic in a Parade Magazine article for Father's Day.
"If you get in trouble it doesn't mean you're a trouble maker....
Maybe you're just getting ready to found a terrorist organization! You too might host the debut of a communist presidential hopeful in your rich man's living room after a long successful career in education!
"No one is born being good at things ...."
Look at me, I'm still not good for anything, and I'm president!
"Don't be afraid to ask questions ...."
Just don't embarrass me getting me off my game, getting me talking about "spreading the wealth around...." None of you kids are thinking of being plumbers when you grow up, I hope ....
"So, don't let us down."
Dutifully execute every embedded command in this speech of mine -- or I might have to frown and get stern!
"[A]nd God Bless America"
For those of you stupid enough to believe in God. Cause American just sucks.
